Sorain, after a long period of silence, spoke up through the cracking of his frozen lips. "Understand that by seeking that information about us. You are sealing your loyalty with us for better or for worse." He said cutting his eyes sharply at Sennyo to show just how serious he was, allowing no time for Sennyo to change his mind Sorain began to answer the boys question while holding back many vital details, "Well, I suppose there is no point in hiding the fact that I and my brother are Kirigakures Demon Host. We inhereted the Five Tailed Dog" He said while placing a hand on his chest indicating that he was the five tails host, " and the Three Tailed Eagle.." He said pointing two fingers in his brothers general direction. Sorain yawned before leaning back against the rocky cave wall. He had already managed to get his blood flowing smoothly and he was slowly starting to warm up. Although he still was not quite healthy enough to keep any food down, the new clothing that his brother had provided him were doing the trick nicely, in fact he was starting to take a liking to their feel. "In any case, to make a much longer story much shorter, we have not ever been able to truly live our lives and we knew that there was no way that the village was going to let us go willingly. It was just something that we had to accept. We are their precious weapons. Although at the moment we are not the most powerful Ninja that the Country posses, we are the most powerful of our generation. That combined with the fact that we posses one of the villages most well kept blood lines, we were simply to valuable to let go. Without that explosion, we would have never made it more than a few feet away from the village gates."

"Were." Sai muttered in his brother's response to why they had launched that attack on the village. His eyes were wearily trained on the dark ceiling of the cave that they rested in. There was something unsettling about it, about how the darkness above simply denied access to his searching eyes. With a sigh, he turned to look at his brother, his heart heavy with the curiosity of how Sorain must have felt with that ever pressing darkness on him all the time. It must have been scary to not be able to see, always needing some form of crutch to get around and never having that wonderful reassurance that the power of sight could provide for one.
The boy shook the thoughts out of his mind, his heart was already pained and sad and he didn't need any more emotions to fill it before it ended up popping. Gulping down hard on a knot that was filling in his throat from the emotions, Sai continued on. "We were their weapons. Whether they wish to acknowledge it or not, we will never fight on their behalf. At least never willingly." The words were soft as Sai could barely raise his volume up but the tone was a strange mix, it carried the sadness that was building in his chest but it was tipped in a dangerous venom, a venom that was deadly and full of the hatred directed to the village. "And if I do say so, our plan was a success. We're a ocean and two countries apart from that blasted village; no one has managed to find us as of yet... and at this rate, I don't think they ever will.
In any case... You mind, Sennyo?" Sai questioned, a lazy hand waving at him as he cracked a grin and let out a soft laugh at himself. "Toss me a pork bun or something to chow down on." With a smile, he kept his hand outstretched to receive the bun before continuing on, stopping every moments to take a bite of his food. "So, Sennyo, tell us.. What are your abilities? Do you have any special talents or capabilities as a shinobi that we should know about? Cause, even though I doubt we'll ever be found by the Water Country... It still seems as though others will come every so often to bother us, and it'll serve us best if we all could work together through the midst of battle with ease."

Sennyo started when Sorain spoke up. it had been quite a bit since Sennyo had heard his voice, and Sennyo had pretty much assumed that he had lost consciousness after his ordeal to which Sennyo still was completely unaware of what had truly happened, but Sennyo turned his body to face Sorain and listened intently. He smiled slightly when Sorain gave the speech about binding himself to them. Well, for all intents and purposes, that had pretty much already been done and could (for better or worse as he put it) not be undone. Sennyo's head cocked to the side curiously when he mentioned that they were the demon hosts of Water. So, they were jinchuriki. That was interesting to know, and on top of that, they had kekkei genkai. to be honest, Sennyo had already guessed that one because he remembered when Sorain had frozen the tree. That could only be done by mixing Water based and Wind based chakras. That was very rarely seen outside of bloodlines. Sennyo then turned his head to Sai, as Sai began to amend certain aspects which indicated their loyalties. Sennyo had to admit that, even though he had been loyal for a while to Kiri, he was not sure that he would want to remain such. After their tale, Sennyo remembered certain things that he had attempted to bury under mounds of cheerful disposition. He was not wanted there like they were. His family, whoever they were, had abandoned him once the sealing had occurred. He had been raised by whatever Villager was less scared of him that day and then promptly thrown out. Some nights he actually had spent on the streets until 19 when the Kiri Village took an interest and put him in the dorms. He shook his head, not memories he needed right now. He looked back to Sai who apparently was wanting explanations about him. In truth, he didn't even really know the extent of what he could accomplish, but he could try. First, he picked a wrapped pork bun out of the pack and tossed it to Sai before he began to speak.
"Hmmmm.....well, with me, I have always been fast and agile. Um, for some reason, normal elements don't really bother me. I can maintain my internal temperature in pretty much any environment, but obviously chakra based attacks would still hurt me. I am only basically skilled in certain medical techniques like First Aid and basic injury reduction though I wish to get better in that field. Oh, I can sense things, like when people are near me. It's pretty much active all the time even though sometimes I wish it weren't; however, it's hardly accurate and would only serve as a warning that people are near us as opposed to their exact locations. I suppose I want to work on that too. Ummmmmm......I don't know what else is there. Hmmm......" He rubbed one of his horns, not really thinking that they might want an explanation of his appearance. He never truly remembered that he looked rather odd, but if they asked, he would tell them what he knew about the original Sennyo which was not much.

Sorain reached forward and snatched the pork bun from his brothers hands, half eaten, the boy waisted no time scarfing it down. He knew he would not have the stomach to eat anything whole, so it was far better that he take half of his brothers food. Sorain yawned, sleep was slowly creeping on him most likely due to the exertion of chakra it took to return himself back to his body and the world of the living. Sorain's eye brow perked up at what Sennyo was saying, "Ah, so another medic in our rag tag team." He said, indicating that he too was trained in the medical arts, "Though it would have been nice to have a tracker in the group, I suppose two medics is not a disadvantage at all." He concluded before speaking yet again out loud, but more towards his brother. "What are we going to do with ourselves now brother? I have some ideas of my own, but Im curious to see what you had planned. We have our freedom, but that is not enough for me to be satisfied. There are others like ourselves that have been enslaved by the evil of their countries. Shall we purge this world of that evil?" Sorain spoke in such a way to hide his true ambitions, deep down inside he knew that his motive was revenge. He had enough of playing hero and being the village savior slash ace in the hole. No, it was his turn to gain some satisfaction, and nothing, literally nothing, in this lifetime could make him more happy than to see the great countries that thought themselves so powerful, covered in ice as the suffering of the evil and unpure screamed out, only to be muted by the thick bitter cold of his ice. Sorain would see this world destroyed, and a new, pure world created. From his ice, he would create an empire that no one in existence would be able to stop.

"Oh ho? That's actually awesome." Sai exclaimed happily, taking a bite of his pork bun. God was it delicious even despite the coldness that had filled it to the core. The savory flavor was still there and Sai loved it. It was his pork bun. "That sensing ability could actually come in handy if anyone actually found us... But I doubt it. I really feel as though we've gotten out and we aren't ever gonna get caught~" The boy chuckled happily and laid back against the wall of the cave, taking another bite from his pork bun. Despite the fact they were in the freezing cold, in a country they were unfamiliar with and obviously garnering some form of enemy with the natives, Sai was content. He was content and happy to be free from kirigakure, even if that meant eating cold pork buns in some random, wet cave in the middle of no where. He was happy. "So.." The boy began, contemplating if he should or shouldn't ask before finally opting to ask. "That horn of yours. Were you born with that or what exactly? I've never seen a person with something like that, so I'm sort of curious what caused it... Is it some sort of clan trait or evolution? Sorry if I seem rude, I'm just... I don't know, curious. You don't have to answer if you feel uncomfortable about it." He said gently before going to take another bite out of his pork bun... Only there was no pork bun to be found. Where had the pork bun gone? Why would it betray him? His pork bun!! It... it was ELE(Sorain)!
A sadness pulled over Sai's being, his bright blue eyes staring hopelessly at his vacant hands. Once... Once upon a time there was a pork bun. A wonderfully delicious pork bun, that was all but Sai's own. And now.. Now there was naught. It had been snatched, stolen, ripped away from his existence in an untimely fashion and it had left a wound. A hole deep in soul that felt far from being filled by any other existence. No food, no savory treat would fill that hole in his soul... not even another pork bun. Why? Because that was his pork bun and he would never get it back.
So as Sorain asked his questions to the vacant mind of his brother, Sai simply stared back at him wordlessly. Without warning, Sai launched himself at his brother's form, taking advantaged of his weakened state while he was still at full strength to overpower him and wrestle him down to the floor of the cave. It would be only a few moments before he Sorain in a juji-gatame armbar, his body feigning strain for comical purposes to replace the true satisfaction of actually hurting his brother. "b*****d! I wanted that!" He howled, holding the hold for a few more moments before releasing it as he pulled himself into a up seated position with a blank face and simply stared at his brother.
"Whut?" Sai said in an idiotic fashion, his eyes wide with vacancy as he stared at his brother almost blindly. "Wait, whut?" He repeated, his eyes fluttering as he seemed to be trying to figure out some incredibly difficult problem. "That... brother-" He strained in a mocking fashion as he began to come to, - was very awkward. You... are very awkward. 'Shall we purge-' Whut? Maaaan." Sai said with an incredulous tone, waving away his brother as he turned to talk to Sennyo again. But he couldn't bring himself to say anything to the boy, his eyes were still on Sorain and the fact that he seemed rather serious about what he said. "Wait, you're joking, right? Tell me you are joking. Why the hell would we care a god damn s**t pick about the other people anywhere? Why should we risk our freedom for them? We are free, Sorain. Don't you understand, the whole point, THE WHOLE GOD DAMN THING! The attack on the village, all those lives we took, our bloody ******** struggle in this frozen wasteland! It was all for ONE thing. Not two, or three, but one. To get the hell out, to be free." Sai's voice was cracking under the strain of his anger as he boomed through the entire cave. He couldn't believe that his brother had actually suggested something like that. It was to ridiculous to even conceive something like that, where the idea of saving the world had been born from was beyond Sai.
In fact, it had never once crossed either of their minds to be anyone's heroes. They had always been there for each other, because there was no one else but each other to be there for. Now they had Sennyo, but that didn't mean they had to continue reaching out to every pour soul in the world. They had only dreamed of one thing for eleven years... To escape and be free of that corrupt world. To live happily without any strain of any sort, and now that they had finally gotten it... Sorain wanted to get back in?! "Yes, I have a plan. It's called get out of this cave. Find a nice village that has a low crime rate and the government in the country is strong but in the village is laxed. It'll probably be a ring ding village, but ******** I will take it. I will take it and I will get myself a ring ding job that I will be beast at. I will save money and I will buy a house. I will find myself a wonderful girl and get hitched. I will have three wonderful children, one of which I will give your name as a middle name and you best be ******** there as a role model for them. So they have someone to run to when Mommy and Daddy are being mean and strict.
I could give less then two ******** about the rest of the world and their problems any more. You know what that will get us? Attention. We are out of that village, we have our freedom. We're gonna have to fight to protect it and if we go about plotting some world savior s**t we will loose it. We are not legendary shinobi and we probably never will be... I love you man, but you have to be insane to be thinking this. Weren't we gonna get that life we always wanted? Maybe one day open up our own store for something and whatever, whatever... Dude, don't tell me you want to throw that away... I don't plan to ever go back into that world... That hateful world.." The boy's tone had finally softened and was barely a whisper at this point, his form bent over almost as though he was defeated by some unseen force, a sadness pulling over him almost instantly. "... Look. We have our chance to be happy. it's risky, they're probably still looking for us but we can bide out time and slowly create our life. Maybe we can even fake our own deaths, who knows. But there are ways to get them off of us, we just need to find it. And once we do, we will have every chain and lock free of ourselves... That's what we always wanted, right? But... If that's what you want... To save the world... To throw away everything we dreamed of and save these ungrateful people who will hate us for what we do until the very end where they fully understand... Then... That is what we will do. You are my brother and I will never leave you to do this alone... But please. Let's not do something we needless of us..."

Sennyo snickered slightly when Sorain had mentioned purging the world of those particular evils. Sai, Sorain, and Sennyo were okay ninjas by some standards, but that would never be able to be done no matter their level. As long as there was government, someone was going to be used. As long as there were two people in the same room, someone was going to be used. Sorain had to have realized that, but then Sai spoke up, and he began talking about what they should do with their new found freedom, and Sennyo had to say that it sort of meshed with his though he wanted very little to do with a Village of his own. In truth, Sennyo just wanted to find somewhere green and fun. His whole life goal was to live outside and have fun with other people when he could. He didn't care for the bells and trappings of a so-called normal life. He just wanted to fade into nature much like his namesake, a nymph or a pixie. He looked over at the pair wondering what their next move was to be considering their dreams seemed to be vastly different at this particular juncture. However, Sai's question took him aback slightly. Sennyo reached up and put his fingers on the horn above his left eye.
"Oh, this. Well, supposedly, it is a leftover from when a mysterious spirit was sealed inside me as a child." In order to give more comical effect to it. Sennyo put his hands up and made a ghostly moan. However, he quickly put his hands down and smiled.
"That is actually the reason I can do a lot of things. I'm really not sure the depth of my ability, but I hope to find out soon enough, in some way or another. Oh, by the way, Sorain, I don't think you should be in such a hurry. If you want to do all that, I suggest we at least wait for the explosions to cool down." Sennyo turned back to the fire, not really needing the heat, but just gazing into it in wonder. He always loved the look of fire

Sorain snarled as he fought to release himself from his brothers grip. Bringing his arm up he bent it in a perfect ninty degree angle before snapping it forward with a vicious speed, leaving a easily stinging strike against his brothers back shoulder. Before rolling and slinging him off. Sorain winced as he tried to pretend as though that feet did not cause him more pain than he had inflicted. Sitting himself up right he grunted into a aggravated sigh, what was wrong with these people? How ******** nieve could they be? But then again, Sorain was always the hot headed trained to go type, while his brother, though he could be every much as vicious, was more care free. The two were so smiler yet so entirely opposite. "Wow..." He began shaking his head, "Even after becoming national terrorist you still have not opened your eyes. I thought I was supposed to be the blind one Sai! Did you not hear everything I just said? Has your head been so far up your a** our entire life that you dont see how ******** valuable we are to them? " He said through clintched teeth, "You think they will EVER give us peace? Sai! The world is not big enough for us to hide from them forever! ******** hiding... Im tired of it.. Having to spend our entire lives in hiding is not being free. " Sorain paused at his brothers notion of starting a family and for a moment was strucken with silence. That was a concept that he had never before now thought of, it was always something that had frieghtened him more than brought him delight. He always feared that should he ever spill his seed into a women, he would release his demon along with it, forever cursing his own child with a life of pain and suffering that he would never be able to forget. Sorain cleared his cracking lips as he tried to beat some sense into his brothers thick skull, "Your gonna get married!? Really? Who in the ******** would willing marry us knowing who and what we are? Knowing that any life they have with us could be ripped from them in an instant? Knowing that birthing our children means that there lives will be in danger every day that they are alive? Kirigakure WILL NOT. Let us go this easily. That explosion we set off in Kiri was a nessicary destraction, but that is all it was, a ******** destraction. You think they are not going to realize where we are!? Dude we have only been gone for about a day and a half and have only moved one trade country away. They will find us eventually, mark my ******** words." Sorain rubbed his forehead to calm himself down, "However... I do agree that we should lay low for awhile before doing anything at all. Lets just find somewhere to get warm and wait for this to blow over a little bit. In about a month or so our trail will have cooled down a bit and then we can further discuss what we will do."

Sai's eyes grew cold and sullen, his face puckered and a sigh pushed through his tightly pressed lips. For Sorain's entire speech, he kept himself refined and quiet. "That's pretty cool Sennyo. We will definitely have to see just how far those powers reach in the near future." The words left the boy's mouth unemotionally as he kept his eyes trained on his brother for a long moment before shaking his head softly. "Yea, in a month. Sure." He said softly, before pushing himself up from his seat against the cave wall and silently walking deeper into the recesses of the rocky structure.

Sennyo was shocked when Sorain did his little dismount and then his little rant. Though he was initially poised to break up a fight, it seemed that the situation was cooling down enough to where they would not need to be broken up in any way. Sennyo then began to listen to Sorain's rant about becoming a national terrorist, opening his eyes, not being blind, the possibility that Mist was already well on their way to hunting all three of them, being truly free, the fact that (despite his want to be normal) Sai was not normal and was not going to land a wife that he would ever be truly honest with, and eventually a resigned sigh that they would postpone plans in order to let their supposed trail cool down. Sennyo waited until he was done with his rant before letting out an exasperated sigh. Who was he kidding? Sennyo sat back on the wall of the cave before opening his mouth to speak. His tone was bright and practically giggling as though Sorain had just told a really funny joke.
"Excuse me Sorain, but your bullshit just does not mesh. You seem to be deluded enough to believe that our little rag tag team is enough to blow apart entire countries, free those who would be oppressed under the tyrrany of others, and essentially start a new empire with you and Sai as the heads. I suppose I fade into the background, or something. However, you seem to think that, should we possess this supposed strength to rip apart an entire country's government and steal their biggest prizes, we don't have enough strength to simply have a nice and peaceful life. I'm sorry, but if you are arrogant enough to assume that we could get past Chuunin, Jounin, the ANBU black ops, whatever royal guard the kage stashes for his own personal guard, and then the kage his or herself then you must be arrogant enough to assume the latter is possible as well. Also, if you ask me, the latter sounds a lot less taxing and does not require us to run full kilter into a barrage of fiery hellstorm from which we may not actually return. You need to chill out Sorain. I realize that whatever you and Sai went through was probably pretty hellish, but how in the hell is getting yourself killed going to solve that social issue? I'm sorry to say, but if you have a government, someone will get used. Hell, if you have two people in a room for longer than three days, someone will get used. killing yourself does not solve that. Destabilizing governments does not solve that." Sennyo's tone was still bright and practically on the verge of laughter as though he were telling a funny joke. He honestly did not care what Sorain thought, but he needed to cool down for a moment. True, attacking him verbally may not have the desired effect, but he needed to hear that his plan was ridiculous to the point of lunacy. Sennyo simply sat, gazing at the fire wondering what both their reactions would be. He did not feel particularly threatened in any way, but he was sure that it was not going to be a pleasant reaction from either. However, he did not care one way or another. If he was part of this group, he was going to have his say.

A huge gasp of air built up in Sorains mouth as he forced himself not to laugh at Sennyo's plight. What on earth was this guy? And more to the point, What on earth lead him to such a drastic conclusion. Sorain opened his mouth to let a huge ball of cold air out as the laugh died down, "What YOU need to understand is, the 'least taxing' way is a lot of times not the most effective way. At no point did I ever say we were going to go gun hoe into the Mist Village and try and bring things down. I was simply stating that our goal from this point should be to prepare for our first attack. To find some place to call a temporary home, to train, to build weapons, to seek out the power that we need to not only control the demons inside of us but to use it to conqure those who would see his held captive for life. What the ******** is wrong with you!? You call me arrogent, I call you childishly ignorant. So ignorant that even now you do not understand the gravity of the situation that you have found yourself in. Do you honestly belive that we are going to be able to avoid them forever? You think that were just gonna be able to willy nilly go about life and never have to face their trackers?" Sorain shook his head before forcing himself to his feet. He reached down and snatched another pork bun from the ground and stuffed it in his mouth so that he could free his hands enough to pull the jacket tight over his body before tilting the hood up and securing it safely around his face. He then reached up and pulled the pork bun out of his mouth and held it inside his sleeve to prevent it from completely freezing over. "Grow the ******** up, time to real with ourselves guys. The Kirigakure Shinobi forces will never, and I mean never allow us to live in peace. They will find us eventually, and there is s**t that any of us can do about it. They will spare no resource to find us and bring us back in and they wont be nice about it. Me and Sai will be locked away in the darkest cell they can find, and you Sennyo, You will be labled a terroist and most likely killed." Sorain smirked "Oh yeah, please belive that they wont hesitate to pin this entire thing on you. Better that than tell the people that the Villages two weapons blew up there homes and are still allowed to reside inside the Mist Village gates. " Sorain sighed to himself before turning and heading out of the cave, he yelled over his shoulder, "Let me know when you two are ready to pull your heads out of your a** and use them for more than five seconds. ******** trying to find wives, and get jobs, and all that s**t. We are still ******** weak and when they come for us, they are going to come stronger and stronger until they have captured us. Strength is the key to our freedom, not coin." and with that, he hopped down from a slight hump that lead to the opening of the cave. He landed with a thud on the ground and began to walk off into the snow, grunting the entire way.
After he had put some distance between him and the cave Sorain stopped and rubbed his forehead, he really hated the situation he was in. He held no regrets but he wished that his brother and Sennyo would not be such fools. Kirigakure was evil, they were going to come for them. They were too valuable not to. What was it that made them so blind that they would believe that they were so ******** 'safe'. Kirigakure has been known for its hunter nin for as long as anyone could remember. It had the current largest military in the Shinobi world, and had enough resources to smoke them out of any village that they went to and then some. Sorain clinched his fist as the snow battered against his body, causing him to blend in to its crisp white blanket of frozen water. "They are going to find us" He kept repeating himself. "Its too much to assume that we will be able to run. It is far more reasonable to prepare ourselves to survive the fight" He spoke out loud to himself. Sorain sighed again, what the ******** where they going to do?

Sai's jaw clenched tight causing the muscle line to bulge and flex violently against his skin. He had gone deep into the cave but he could still here his brother's voice all the way down where he was and it was infuriating him. He was a fool. A moron. Unintelligent and incapable of seeing beyond the hateful furry that he held tight within his body. He was more emotion then thought, his logic was only pushed foreword by his anger and despite how logical it may or may not be that tint of hate made his mind nothing but a cesspool of illogical creations. He was right though. The water country would never stop and they needed to be stronger. There was no way to deny it, to argue it or even dare to pretend it wasn't true. They were to precious to the country and if they couldn't have them, they were damn sure never going to let them fall into someone else's grasp.
But that was far to say that the duo needed to garner all this power for some half cocked, righteous ploy. To go and tear down the water country. Then what? Other countries will simply target them due to the fear that the two would turn on them for whatever half cocked reason they might find. That was a fools goal. At least for a person who claimed the want for peace and freedom, taking down kirigakure was the last thing that would achieve that. Sai shook his head and threw himself to the cavern's wall blindly as the lack of light left him guessing and chancing where his foot falls landed. Crudely Sai threw his head back to smack into the wall behind him, the rough texture making easy work of the skin on his skull and dying his hair red with his own blood. Again he did, and yet again and one more time until his blood rain straight through the middle of his long hair, tinting it almost as though it was a purposeful highlight.
It was driving him mad. All his life he and his brother had always been on the same side. Always had each others back. Never did they argue, because they were always a singular force. But now... It seemed as though they were definitely two different people. They needed to get stronger not to purge the world but simply protect their freedom. Whatever Sorain wanted to say, whatever twisted he wanted to put on it, they were free. Or at least the freest they had ever been in eleven years and instead of relishing it, nurturing it into something that would be everlasting... he wanted to risk it. "RRRRRRAAAAAARGGGGH!!" With a burst of emotion, Sai slammed his closed fists into the walls on either side of him before allowing his body to become weak and slide down to a seat. Why were things becoming so much more difficult?

[Continuing from Academy]
Soul watched as the guy disappeared in front of him, blending with the snow. Soul stayed in place unsure of what to think about the guys last remarks. What the hell kind of reason is that? There's no way in hell that would be true.. but there isn't a reason he'd come up with something so crazy either. I don't know too many people that would tell a complete stranger what he was doing with all honesty.. then again there are some people like that out there. Soul looked left. Then looked right. In front of him was nothing all around. Nothing but white emptiness. Curiosity began to flow through his veins. Seriously what in the hell is that crazy ******** doing out here?
Soul got to his feet and began to walk in the direction the guy had left in. He walked for what felt like miles with the wind lashing at his face. The snow felt like bullets to his already tender frozen skin. Soul had to squint to make out a small blur in the distance.. was it moving or was it just his own mind creating an image that it wished to see. <********, why didn't I just walk with that b*****d to begin with.. I could have at least said something.. Walking with someone would sure as hell beat walking alone.. As Soul wondered aimlessly through the freezing tundra he tried desperately to find a form of tracks to follow. Something, anything that would tell him that he was on the right path other than the blur that lay in the distance. As he draged his body beyond what it was willing to go, the blur became closer and a distinct shape was given to it.. it was a person, someone was walking through the freezing nothingness with him, and it could only be that guy who had stopped him earlier. Soul’s first reaction was to be cautious. If this guy didn’t want to be followed then he shouldn’t let himself be seen. Soul lifted his hood over his spiked blond hair to blend better. He ducked lower and walked faster. Being as small as Soul is he was quick and nearly unnoticeable. Once the blur came into view and all doubt had been taken away as to whether or not this was the guy from earlier, Soul began to relax a bit more. He kept his distance and followed him quietly. Really.. this guy just keeps walking.. where the hell is he going? He can’t be going all the way to the village could he? Before too much longer his questions had been answered. At first glance the small mound of snow had blended in with the background, but it was brought into view when the guy entered into it and disappeared.
So… that crazy b*****d had to have been telling the truth if he knew this igloo was here. His brother must be inside.. should I go up and knock like a neighbor asking for sugar.. or sho- Before the thought could be finished a woman ‘s screams could be heard from within. Soul got into a defensive post and prepared himself while bone chilling screeches of fear ran down his spine. His jaw was clenched tight, kunai in one hand, and the other ready to fight. Time passed and more screams were filling the vacant air. The woman came into view and Soul was ready to jump into action. He lowered himself like a lion ready to pounce. He was tensing up for the action when he noticed her limping away into the snow.. She had been struggling to do something, but seemed to be failing until finally a gust of razor wind hit him directly in the face as a blizzard kicked itself into gear. Sudden bursts of depression and sadness played at Soul’s subconscious. He was brought back to the days in the village with the children mocking him and pushing him into nothingness.. causing him to believe he was nothing.. It brought him back to his mother overlooking him, his father neglecting him, and his brothers and sisters telling him that he was never loved and the sad truth of the neglect pouring into his heart. When the waves of black snow finished he felt the sadness and depression fade as well, slowly at first much more like sap creeping its way down a maple tree, then quicker to water running down a glass window.
Soul opened his eyes to see the igloo melting before his eyes. There were now three guys.. one was the guy from earlier, then laying in his arms was a mirror image of him.. This must be his brother.. no doubt.. Who would have known they were twins. There was one more person with them.. he was wearing more colorful clothes and didn’t quite seem to belong.
The group began to walk into the blizzard with Soul following along at a safe distance. He kept the image of the three to a blur, and just close enough to know that they were there. They walked for some time, though they seemed to know the basic area he was going to. Soul felt as though his feet were going to freeze in their place as he dragged them through the ever building snow. He was beginning to lose strength when he watched them disappear. What the ********.. another igloo maybe?.. No there is a mountain here… a cave? As he approached he noticed they had piled up the snow to nearly cover 75% of the opening. I do believe this is probably the only time I’m actually glad to be small. Soul carefully climbed onto the the pile of snow and squeezed himself through.. At first it was difficult, but once he fit his waste through he slid to the ground on the other side. He crouched down and took to the wall. There he noticed a fire and heard the interesting conversation. So these two.. have.. Demons within them?.. What the hell was I thinking? What is going to happen if I get caught here.. God I really should have through this through..

Quote: Awwww.....I slightly miss Kingyo, but his story was pretty much done.
Sennyo made a small derisive noise at Sorain's remarks. This was his new partner? This was absolutely asinine. Sennyo looked down, and he shook his head. So, they were not going to agree. It mattered very little to Sennyo who was building no emotional attachment to either brother and was more leaning toward an alliance of convenience though he did seem to find them appealing if only for entertainment value. Sennyo stood up, as both brothers walked away. He kept his mental eye on them before he noticed something else. There was another signature here. It was not anyone that Sennyo had met, and suddenly, Sennyo's heart missed a beat. Anyone new would have to first be presumed as an enemy and treated as such until otherwise proven. He, however, did not find any need to let their adversary know of their intention. Sorain still seemed to be outside of the cave completely oblivious to the person who was closer, probably inside the cave or at its very rim. Sennyo was not too accurate with it and mostly could just tell that someone was close. He got up casually and walked to Sai who he found beating his head and fists into the wall. Well, this was going to be interesting if a fight ensued. Sai would take a bold stance and then fall flat on his face due to blood loss before the enemy even made contact. Yeah, that would be amazing, but right now, Sennyo could use him as a human shield. He walked over to Sai and smiled at the young man before saying in a hushed whisper.
"Before you go and wound yourself, you should probably know, we have company. Sorain's chakra is not near his, so I don't know if he is aware of our guest, but i suggest we do something about this quick." Sennyo's voice was barely audible and only someone really near him would hear the words, but he decided that, if the adversary was watching, he would put out his hand and act as though he were helping him up as opposed to conspiring against them.

Sorain clintched his fist tight against the sleeves of his jacket, the bitter cold cutting across his skin was no wear near as painful as the thoughts of plight and sheer ignorance from his comrades. Sai was his brother, and Sennyo, although they just met, was the only other person that he really had ever been in contact with for more than a few hours. So with all those things in mind Sai and Sennyo were the closet thing to a real family that he had in a very long time and it pained him that they were so determined to die that they would not even prepare themselves for the battle that was sure to catch up to them. They wanted to live in peace, they wanted to settle down, the life of war and suffering was something that they were trying to avoid, and it was something that Sorain honestly did desire for himself. But the difference between those fools and him was that he was not so stupid as to believe that simply desiring such things matters at all. What were they going to say when they are eventually found? 'Sorry we blew up your country, but its ok we dont want any problems, we just want to live in peace' if it were that simple they would have done that without all the trouble that they went through of setting up the explosion in the first place. Had they forgotten what they were doing this for? Had they forgotten why it was so necessary that they send that message to the country?
Sorain turned around and began marching back towards the cave, they would never allow them to have there freedom, as long as Kirigakure stood they will forever seek them out, the only way was to strike back, and strike back hard! To show then that they were not afraid of being found, and that they welcomed the challenge, that they were ready and willing to fight to their last breath to protect there freedom. The time for being scared was over, it was time to be men. It was time to be ruthless, if blood need be shed to secure their freedom from that hell then so be it, the blood of their foes shall run down the frozen river of bodies that they leave behind.
Sorain stepped inside the cave and removed his hood from around his face and refused to speak, looking up with an expression that read 'who the ******** is that kid'
