Rhaim carried on through his work with transcribing the contents of the library's scroll onto his own material. He continued to use his own idiotic method of disguising the work without actually trying to hide it at all. In truth he really did find his screwed up version of short hand to be much easier and faster for him to read. Despite the fact that it didn't have much rhyme or reason to how it was constructed. It wasn't like it was a system that followed any sort of rules, in fact it didn't even stay consistent as to whether it was a series of pictographs or shortened words. As he pressed on with the copying he actually forgot about Felix being there and thus didn't notice a single thing that happened around him.

((Innuendo
d20 (12) + 83 = 95))
Nakamura remained silent while he contemplated her being. Her body unmoving while his facial expressions displayed confusion and dissappointment. Was he expecting someone else? lingering thoughts were quickly snatched away upon finally hearing his voice.
"...What are you searching for?"
"..My name is Felix."
Her lips parted for a moment as if to answer, but stopped before a single sound came out. Instead, she revealed her left hand, bringing it to her lips as if to whisper that this was not the place to talk. There were too many eyes and they would need to go to an unseen place... one... without so many guards. She may not have been there in quite some time, but things had changed... and they weren't for the better. With so many defences and contraptions, who knew if she would still be considered an ally. This was a chance, that she wasn't willing to take.
Moving her hand down, she left it there for him to take. "I'd like a tour. Perhaps a guide could be useful?" she whispered, barely loud enough for him to hear. She didn't know who could be watching and listening... but she didn't feel she had to worry in front of this one.
((Sorry about the shortness, but there's not alot we can do here.))

Felix Silverlight Felix, for a sturdy enough little fellow, seemed drawn by her eyes... trapped by them, the only thing he knew about her from under her cowl. His own eyes never really left hers as he stood there, silver meeting teal. He had all of the innocence and trust an eleven year old should... and all of the insecurity and maturity of a much older person. He felt that he could trust her though... he 'wanted' to. Felix bought her story without a hint of timidity, actually there was nothing timid about his insecurity... it was matched too strongly by a nature of faith, in what, was a good question, but in himself for sure. He kept eye contact until he finally glanced down at her hand as she offered it. Extended from her cloak, the hand was a drastic contrast to her front and bearing... her hand was of a very light complexion, and soft enough to look at, enough to set him at ease about taking it, though strikingly odd in the difference of color, to the edge of her robe sleeve, which was black. Perhaps it was because she reminded him so much of Travis, and Travis had always looked out for him in the orphanage... they had protected each others backs against all odds. And so, Felix lifted his own hand automatically, glancing up into her eyes quickly once more as his fingers brushed hers. He was wearing black leather gloves himself, but the fingers were open, protecting only his palm and fist from the personal contact. He smiled faintly as he felt her hand cover his own. Turning to walk out of the Library, not really leading, but walking by her side. "...Where would you like to go?" ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [Exit to Konohagakure]

Her hand was slowly taken, the tiny amount of heat given off by his fingertips swiftly faded upon her flesh. The leather in which he used to take her hand, not really leading, but still showing that she was now being escorted by one of their own. A perfect guise for one wishing to be left alone in a village as populated as the Leaf. Right before they left through the door's exit, a few words had broken the silence.
"...Where would you like to go?"
"A place of privacy." Nakamura answered softly, her breath became visible from having inadvertently taken the heat from the boy's fingertips. That was a downside to her prowess, yet, the reason why she hid her identity. She leaned her body towards his at the exit, lowering her head down to whisper into his ear.
"You have my word that your safety will not be put into jeopardy. I'll explain if we can go somewhere that is relatively abandoned."
With her words, she stepped through the door; the valued scroll hidden beneath her cloak was still clasped tightly in her right hand; leaving the library behind.

Rhaim found that his mind was all too ready to go into the normal routine of copying over the scrolls. The which meant that he was ready to get mildly bored and pass out while reading the original scroll. A dull thud rang out in the room as the boy slammed his head into the table without realizing it. He let out a low groan before lifting himself back up and tilting his head completely backwards. The teen stared up at the ceiling for several seconds hoping that his noise hadn't caused any sort of disturbance. He was after all too much of a regular around the building to be bringing negative attention to himself. Eventually he sighed and brought his head back down to normal level and resumed his work copying over the words of the genjutsu scroll.

Rhaim was unable to ignore the pounding in his skull from crashing on the desk a couple of minutes earlier. So much so that he could not progress any further on his transcribing of the jutsu scroll. It also further kept him from noticing the absence of Felix from the library as a whole. With a deep sigh the teen stood up from the desk once more and stretched backwards without actually moving away from the table. With his hands covering his face and his eyes tightly shut he tried to focus on calming the pain. That however was counter productive since all he was doing was focusing on the pain. With yet another sigh the boy gave up and flopped himself back down into his seat. Determined not to let it ruin his whole flow he picked up his pen once more to resume his work.

Rhaim somehow managed to press on through the slightly subsiding head pain in order to copy down the next portion of the genjutsu scroll. After a quick read back he confirmed that what he had previously used as symbols and terms had already changed in his most recent work. Taking a break from the task overnight had definitely had an effect on just how his mind perceived the whole thing. Still it wasn't some super encrypted message that no one could figure it out with some time and a screwed up view of the world. The teen continued to glance from original to copy to ensure that it all matched up in doctrinal sense. Considering his methods, it was bound to not be verbatim. He tried to still push the hurt from his face as his pen moved along his own scroll.

Rhaim was once again kept from moving forward with his work on the scroll copying. However unlike previous failures, the most recent one had to do with the fact that he was caught reading through the entire technique again instead of moving words over. Given that this was more of a common fallacy that the teen displayed, it did noting to dismay him. In fact he simply read on to the point at which he needed to carrying on the task, without worry. The pain in his head had stopped, giving testament to just how minor of a wound it had actually been. Once back to where he had left off the young Nara set pen to parchment with his eyes glancing back and forth from the two documents. He still had quite a ways to go on the item after all.

Rhaim could not seem to draw his attention away from the text of the original scroll to save his life. There was an already frighteningly enticing aspect of learning genjutsu at the get go, but it was a bit much for him to be devouring the work as if it were just any old jutsu scroll. In fact he expected to have that kind of reaction towards almost anything else. The boy lifted his pen from his copy of the scroll to find a larger than normal ink dot from setting the device onto it for an extended period. With a slow shake of the head he leaned back in the chair just long enough to clear his mind of what he was doing. After a brief recollection of why it was that he was still in the library he sighed and leaned forward over the scrolls again. The teen was determined to finish transcribing it that day.

Rhaim kept his vision drifting back and forth from one document to the other as his pen slowly danced over his scroll. It was finally coming together, although in an much slower manner than he had hoped for. It wasn't like the boy hadn't done the exact same task a dozen times before. In fact he had done it almost that many times exactly. However it always seemed to find a way to be somehow new to the young shinobi. At any rate he was going to finish copying over the Magen Narakumi before he moved on to anything else. It was imperative to him that he have another tool in his bag to use before having others trust their lives to him. As he carried on he still failed to notice the absence of Felix.

Rhaim found that despite the light tapping noises of his pen moving across his scroll, he just couldn't find his rhythm yet. The which led him back down the road of merely reading the contents of the original scroll and ignoring his copy altogether. The pen however stayed firmly in his grasp hovering just over the parchment as if ready to resume work. It was too bad that his eyes and mind were not near as eager as his writing utensil. Eventually he caught notice of his material in the corner of his eye and was reminded as to why it was that he was even sitting there. The Genin sighed through his nose at his continuing failure resolved to try harder to stay focused on the task at hand. While it wasn't like he couldn't come back and carry on with it another day, he couldn't train the genjutsu anywhere else but the library until he had his own copy.

Rhaim just didn't have the mental where with all it seemed to actually stayed focused on copying scrolls over on that particular day. The teen leaned back in his chair and threw his arms out to his sides while letting out a loud groan. At the end of which a thought hit his mind about disturbing others in the library, which dragged his thoughts further to wonder about what Felix was doing. With his eyes gazing up at the ceiling he suspected to look across the table and find the other boy sleeping or glaring at him angrily. When he did look over however he found no such sight. In fact as he twisted his head about he found no sign of the other Genin at all. With a shrug made without getting up from his seat, the Nara resolved that Felix must have just went to the bathroom and so continued his work on copying the scroll over.

Rhaim was getting no where fast it seemed given his lack of discipline to the task at hand. While he did truly want to finish with the copying so that he could get down to the learning, he just couldn't pry himself away from reading over the original scroll almost every time he tried to jot down a single word. He was just barely able to catch his folly as the pen in his hand inched closer to the parchment. The which would have no doubt caused a large mark and ruining his work up until that point. He shook his head in disappointment at himself and let out another sigh before trying to continue on again. It was becoming all to routine for him to start scanning both documents to get his place again only to find himself reading through the entirety of the original.

Rhaim finally saw some sort of progress in his regimental approach to copying over the scroll. He came to realize that he had come to about the half way point of the scroll with his writing. Though that had been easy for him to discern given that he had read over the thing so many times. He could almost read the thing from memory and was starting to question whether or not he even needed to copy it down anymore. In the end though he knew that he would have to continue placing pen to paper so that he would have a reference nearby for when things failed. Unlike with ninjutsu, his clan jutsu, or even mild taijutsu, using chakra to manipulate the mind of another was something completely foreign to him. At least from the aggressors stand point.

Rhaims' victory and momentum were short lived as simple curiosity drew him away from the task. He honestly wanted to continue working on the scrolls but there was something off about how long it was taking Felix to head to the restroom. Confident that he wouldn't be long, the teen left his supplies on the table and went to go check on the other boy. Even if it was just an upset stomach it was probably something he should know. To his surprise not only was the restroom empty but the ninja at the front desk said that he had left some time earlier. Although not exactly happy with the prospect of having to look for Felix, Rhaim was the one that would have to report his whereabouts later. The Nara sighed and headed back to his desk hoping that the other shinobi had simply headed back to the barracks. Once back in front of his work, Rhaim couldn't help but want to finish copying the scrolls over. It wasn't like anyone would do anything before night time anyways.
