Seph poured himself a mug of tea, turning and looking at her. "The Nin that are after you, that you told us about. I had limited information to begin with, so I didn't come up with much, anyway. Just unneeded information about local crime lords. I guess that's where I made my mistake." He took a sip. "You look exhausted."

"Thanks. I'll spare you my thoughts on your looks." She shook her head. "You don't need to gather information. I know everything about them that it is possible to know and still be alive...and some stuff it isn't. I grew up with them, remember?"

"Where are they, now?" The question was simple, direct, and point-proving.

Wolven Clow#2 "So much stuff happens around here, that they won't even know we're gone. Trust me!"
He chuckled a little bit, as they made their way outside. The full fledged cool air had hit him so well, that he loved the feeling of it, especially while wearing some cooler clothes. Besides, he had warmer clothes in his backpack if need be. Looking forward, he blinked in curiosity as a snowflake fell onto his nose. He shook it off, and looked up at the sky seeing snow beginning to descend slowly around them. Smiling a little, he knew this was just a warning that winter was coming soon, but he loved the snow nonetheless.
"Finally...the snowy season's just around the corner."
He caught up to her side, as they headed for the forest. Instead of the usual root towards the lake, or Durem, they started on a little used path that headed to the west of the Academy. Nami laughed, trying to catch snowflakes on her tongue. It melted within seconds. With a sigh, she glanced upwards.
"I love winter..."

"One of them is dead. The other three..." She shook her head again. "They could be anywhere. Though they wouldn't be able to get that close to the dojo without someone noticing." She shrugged. "Most of what I know is like a stats list."

Clow nodded, as he looked up, and finally reached the forest, with snowflakes now being blocked mostly by trees, but let some of them through. He sighed, and then looked to her.
"If this keeps up...let's go to the Academy. I remember us always playing in the snow there...And well you can never get too old to do that."
Chuckling to himself, he fixed his scarf with his free hand, and rubbed her other hand with his. He realled hoped things would go well, and there would be no trouble for their journey.

"Everyone'll fall over when they see you though." Nami said as they moved deeper into the trees. "I mean, I only left a month ago. You're the super genius that's been gone for years."
"And I agree to play in the snow as long as you don't hide shurikens in the snowballs." She reprimanded, remembering one such incident that got him suspended for a week.

Seph nodded. "Information--any information on where they might be--is better than nothing. I'd rather know their location before we sensed them coming here." He took another sip and sat down at the table, too. "Stats list? Fill me in?"

"Must be hard looking for information on people about whom you know nothing." She grinned teasingly at him. "We were each trained in one of the aspects of ninja arts. The expectation was that we'd work well alone, but best together." She rubbed her wrapped wrist reflexively, thinking. "The one who's dead was trained in stealth and speed."

A young man clad in a green, ragged uniform walks down the path to the Gaian Ninja Academy. His eyes look battle-hardened and distant, a vibrant green beneath his beret, emblazoned with E.R.A. On his shoulder is a tricolured patch.
"Hello? Whit be hae? I'm lookin' for Reeve?"

He nodded, holding the mug to his lips. "And the others?" He managed to say over the tea.

"Weapons. Chakra control. Taijutsu." Nyl's voice wavered just a bit on the last one. "It's safe to say that the weakest was sent after me first."

-=Neko snorted awake, grabbing his pole and flicking it up as he flung a small fish out of the water. He blinked sleepily, and grinned at the fish, then took it off of the hook and threw it back into the lake. He yawned and stretched, brushing some of the snow off of his bare shoulders, seemingly unaffected by it=-

Clow smiled, and then remembered a flashback of that happening with the snowball incident. Then he blushed a little and looked up at the trees as they continued to walk through the forest, getting further and further away from the Dojo, out of sensing range.
"I promise! But I doubt anyone would fall over...I mean...I'm not that much of a supergenius..."
He didn't take compliments too well, especially since he left the village.

Seph nodded. "I take it they'll save the best for last. Well, I do hope I get to meet these people." He slowly tipped the mug up, savoring the last bit of tea. "What are their names? That should help, next time I go digging around for information."
