"When you gain the Lords trust, I want you to kill him. Or maybe just poison him and I'll finish him off...if he doesn't make me a better offer." One thing Zabuza loved to do was play off his victims. If the victim offered a better price than the client did, then he'd have a new client. And seems he always killed them when he finished, it was a win win for him.
"Tomorrow I'm going to sell the diamond and buy you some clothes with it and whatever else we need. You should follow some of the woman around to try and pick up some more attractive traits so you don't make the Lord or any of his followers suspicious."
Shino just had a simple meal at the tea house before begining to wander around the village. His father was away on a job and his mother was visiting her sister who was having a baby. This meant he was alone and had no reason to rush home. If only I had someone to be around for a little while. While he did enjoy his solitude, he'd grown used to having his friends around a lot. I wonder where they are?

Naruto let out a small sigh as he finished. He looked down to Sasuke, wondering if he'd gone far with those wounds... they were poorly dressed, and he wondered if he did it on the go. Plopping down into a chair he'd dragged over, the blond ran his hand through his hair. He was contemplating on what to do. He could tell someone Sasuke was here, yet... he didn't want to.
Starting to feel a bit restless with thought, Naruto stood and began pacing about his apartment, a bit anxious, with some of his prior anger starting to return. Now, he would just have to wait until Sasuke woke for answers.
Haku's eyes drifted open again, and only then did he brush his hair away. "Yes, Zabuza-san." He murmured from where his head rested, eyes observing the older male. He cleared his throat slightly, and decided to start practicing, now. "I take it that the Diamond task was simple enough...?" He asked with a false, yet almost natural-seeming, feminine voice.

Zabuza gave a shrug. "It wasn't much of a challenge, there were only two hired ninja guarding it. Even if they were ANBU, they were pathetic." he decided right there that he too was not going to enjoy this new mission of theirs. If it wasn't for the mission, he'd have told Haku not to practice with them. He'd just have to put up with it for a couple days, then it'd be over.

Haku gave off another smile. Either Zabuza was getting stronger, or the ANBU were getting weaker. Either way was good for them. His eyes drifting over to the window, he noted the wind had picked up and the snowfall was heavier. The room temperature had also dropped quite a bit, even though it had already been rather cold upon arrival. Remembering the fire wood beside the house, he shifted to stand.
"We need a fire in the fireplace.... I'll be right back, Zabuza-san..." Haku murmured, tugging his outer yukata-like top closer to the sweater he wore under it, preparing himself to go out into the cold to get firewood.

Zabuza reached into his bag and pulled out another sweater and tossed it Haku as he headed out the door. He didn't want him getting sick, it would ruin the whole mission. "Don't stay out there too long."
While Haku was getting more wood, he went over and started a fire with the little bit that was there. There's only one bed, but it should be big enough for the both of us. Then again, I've never had any problems with sleeping on the couch. making up his mind, he moved back to sit on said couch to wait for his tool.

Haku'd tugged on the sweater tossed to him, greatful for it's added warmth as he disappeared outside.
After a few minutes, Haku came back in, arms full of wood. He seemed a bit out of breath, which was unusual for the teen, as an arms-full load of wood was nothing compared to what his training took him through, but he seemed to brush it aside as he kicked the door closed and crouched by the meager fire Zabuza had started up. His chest ached from the pressure the wind had put on him, and the even more sudden drop of temperature, though the sweater Zabuza'd tossed at him had helped.
Crouched by the fire, he built it up a bit and peeled off the extra sweater, cleaning it off before folding it neatly. Turning his head to look at Zaubza, Haku managed a smile. "Would you like me to make some tea, Zabuza-san?" he asked with the mock-feminine voice.

Zabuza gave a simple nod. He leaned down and tugged his sandals off, then stretched out on the couch. They had spent the day traveling and he was completely exhausted. He groaned a bit from stretching, his body sore from the weight of his bag and weapon. Everything he had he needed though so put up with the extra trouble.

Haku gave a small nod in reply, and shifted, standing up again. "You should take the bed. The couch isn't good for your back, Zabuza-san." the teen said calmly before disappearing into the kitchen. There had been dishes left there, as well, so he pulled a tea pot out of the cabinet, and then something to heat water in. Filling the container up, he decided to use the fire he'd already made, that way it would heat up quicker so he wouldn't have to wait for a stove burner to heat up.
Carrying the pot of water out, his breath was still a bit uneaven as he crouched back down by the fire. Placing the pot in, he made sure he didn't catch any clothing on fire, before standing completely again and heading into the kitchen after stopping by his bag to pull out his supply of green tea.

Kiba stood up, Akamaru getting up as well. "Well, c'mon then. Let's go for walk or something." he said. Akamaru nodded and the two began walking. A bored look came across Kibas face as he walked. A few minute had passed before he spotted a familiar face. Kiba looked over at the person in question, seeing that it was Shino. "Well, if it isn't Shino!" he called over loudly.

Shino stopped walking and turned to see Kiba with Akamaru heading towards him. "Kiba." he said with a nod of his head. "And hello Akamaru." he bent down for a brief moment to pet the dog. "No training today?"

Kiba waved his hand nonchalantly. "Eh. I decided I needed a bit of a break. It won't kill me." he replied.

Hours passed before Sasuke woke up. For a few seconds he forgot where he was and sat up startled; he quuickly laid back down with a loud groan. The ebony haired male also forgot he was injured. Returning to his senses to where he was he sighed and carefuly sat up, looking around the room. The dobe still lived in the same appartment; had anything really changed at all?

"True." Shino wondered how he could get the Inuzuka to hang around longer without letting the other male know that's what he wanted. "I'm going for a walk in the woods, it's relaxing." With that he simply began walking again.

"No, you take the bed, I'd rather sleep out here by the door. There are only a couple small windows for exits in the bedroom and that won't be good if those Hunter-nins find us." Zabuza watched the boy behind half closed eyes.

Kiba simply blinked as Shino began walking. "I guess I'll come along. Better than sitting around all day. I'd turn into that Nara kid if I did."he said, moving quickly until he walking alongside Shino. Akamaru followed behind the two. Kiba could feel himself physically relaxing a little, now that he was back in the company of one of his friends.
