Yumi made a huge leap up onto a nearby rock, where her tracks wouldn't be visible from the road. After that she didn't immediately follow Chaos, she jumped around in the mountains a bit so that she could be alone for a while. Chaos's strange ability to read her mind freaked her out, she had never met a single person that could read her mind before and up untill now she had thought her brain to be pretty much the only really safe place. Liu crouched down and looked at the beautiful scenery, the snow covered mountains and the bright blue sky. Then Yumi suddenly remembered she'd loose track of Chaos if she waited any longer and jumped down, increased her speed so that she finally only was a blurry figure jumping from one rock to another.

Sakura moved fast and then when Yumi caught up he moved up to her pace. The two blurry figures raced down the mountain leaving no trail behind them. Sakura's eyes flitted about making sure of the area. They would make it down in record time. Bounding from rock to rock, without leaving so much as a scratch from his sandals. He moved in perfect movements, despite the weapons at his side, and the other seemingly impeding things.
The boy was dazed for a bit and then slowly woke up on someone's back. He reacted without moving his body to let her know he had woken. A kunai fell to his hand and then slashed back to her side. If it hit there would be a deep wound in her ribs and side in general. This boy didn't like to be taken advantage of and knew how to care for himself.

Yumi bounced from one rock to another and she seemed to somehow be able to find the smallest little cracks to touch down on. Her sword was once again resting on her back. The two ribbons she had in her hair finally decided to give up, but Yumi caught them without even having to slow down, then put them inside her kimono. Enjoying the speed and the wind blowing in her face she continued racing downwards.

Chaos Sakura Sakura moved fast and then when Yumi caught up he moved up to her pace. The two blurry figures raced down the mountain leaving no trail behind them.

This boy didn't like to be taken advantage of and knew how to care for himself. Lotus, who had been monitoring him for soem time now, dumped him just in time so his slash went wide, missing her skin. She stared down at him angrily and started walking away without another word. It was getting dark and cold and she needed to get down the mountain, if that brat was gonna cut her, she didn't care if he stayed up here to freeze. She growled quietly adn took off down the mountain, much like she imagined Chaos and his companion would have. They'd be donw the mountain by now, she paced herself though, she wasn't really in a hurry to see Chaos, chasing him, at least, gave her something to do.

Sakura bounced along and then flung his words out over to Yumi as they both continued their downward plunge. "We will stop in a bit. It's almost time for the sun to sleep." With that said he suddenly stopped in a crouch and propelled himself without a hesitation up into the air.
He used his forward momentum and his crouch to throw himself past Yumi and down the mountain. He hit the ground and continuing running without a pause. Yumi would have to pull the same movement to catch up with him now. At least she would be somewhere close to be able to catch up.They moved quickly and would be gone from the mountain easily by the time the intruder behind him had gotten down it.
The boy on the other hand spit toward the girl running off. She wasn't near fast enough to catch that man. The only man he knew who could win any fight he wished, or perhaps needed. The boy rose from the ground grumbling as he straightened his white cloth and headed back toward the cave. He sighed softly and then looked back down the mountain for a long time before speaking. "Till I see you next time...father sensei." He turned heading into the cave. His face fully obscured by his ninja's mask to keep it hidden about who he was, or even that he resembled anyone...

Since the boy had absolutely no clue who the woman was that had just dumped his a$$ unceremoniously onto the ground, he really had no idea what she was capable of. Since she had already been quite good at running at top speeds, the only way she could go was get better...which was what she did. She really didnt' feel like disappointing Chaos whens he finally caught up to him; and she would catch up with him eventually. The sun was going down , almost gone over the mountains. She put on an extra spurt of speed, bouncing from rock to rock down the mountain.

"You did that on purpose Chaos!" Evil b*****d... Yumi shouted after Chaos then used a vertical rock to push off from, which sent her flying forwards with her head first. When she was about to hit the ground, she flipped around in the air and continued running.
"May I ask what purpose that had..." Yumi grunted.

Chaos' eyes remained forward, his feet pushing him from the earth, yet leaving no trace of him being there. "Look behind us Yumi-dono...you'll see someone running after us. Now she won't make it to the bottom before we are far gone from this place...make more sense?" He looks back at her and then forward as he continued on their way. The sun quickly leaving them for other places.

"But she's too slow, she'll never catch us anyways." Yumi muttered, even though she knew Chaos had a point there. She sighed and concentrated on running.

((They're already off the mountain. That large leap Chaos made took him off the mountain xd ))
Chaos continued running until the sun was gone from them. His eyes looking back as he slowed down to a walk. He nods to her. "Even if we sleep and she runs she won't catch us tonight...Only someone with speed like you or I could do it. We'll sleep for 3 hours and then be on our way alright? Stay alert." He walks to a tree and leaps up into it. He sits on a branch and closes his eyes slowly.

Chaos Sakura ((They're already off the mountain. That large leap Chaos made took him off the mountain xd )) ((Ooops? I'll edit the post... I guess the paint fumes in my room make me kind of dizzy blaugh sweatdrop )) "Alright!" Yumi jumps up into another tree just like Chaos. Crouching down on a thin branch high up in the tree she also closes her eyes.

Lotus came to the edge and looked down. She grunted irritably, she knew she'd never catch them by running, even if she ran her best. She grinned evilly and thanked her father for the hundredthe time for passing down his artistic gene. She took off her jacket and tied aroudn her waist revealing an odd contraption and harness. She pulled a string near her left shoulder and what looked very much like bat wings spread out with an odd hissing noise. She grapped the straps for steering and took a deep breath. She had tested this thing before but she was still a bit nervous, if one thing went wrong, she could plummet to her death and that would be the end of that.
With one last breath she jumped.....
For a few seconds she plummeted but then she swooped upwards and leveled out. She looked about her until she caught some movement below. She stayed out of projectile range but circled, they movement was in the trees, she had practiced landing like a bird but the branches didnt' look very sturdy so Lotus waited, thinking, watching.
(bird!)

Chaos' eyes opened well before one hour was even up. She had been circling for a bit now. Great. He had to get him and Yumi out of there without he finding them. She was flying as well. His eyes traced over to Yumi and he tapped twice on the wood. If she was still as alert as always she would wake up without a start. The person in the air wouldn't be able to hear it. She was too far up there. He only knew she was there because of her presence, and the sound of her turning and such. He could only wait and hope they got out of there quick enough. And without drawing her attention.l

Yumi just opened one eye and looked at Chaos, but didn't start moaning like she usually would, she didn't even groan. The reason for this was that she knew there ahd to be some special reason for Chaos waking her up and she was also pretty sure what the reason was. She slowly got up, making sure not even a small leaf would move and nodded to Chaos.

Chaos nodded back to her and in simple hand movements let her know that someone was above them. Then he told her they would need to get through the forest to lose her. He did a movement saying no. And then made a running motion with his fingers. He moved a hand to his face and then pulled it down as if he had a mask and was a ninja.
He then nodded to her and without so much as a flicker from the tree he fell. He landed on the ground without a noise or excess movement. The trees didn't disturb their movement. These were expert assasains. If they wanted, they could disappear. Even to her. These two were the most advanced in their abilities and were possibly only equal to each other. That had yet to be seen though.
He kneeled in wait for her. Luckily the trees were closed in so no one could see in from over head, and once they started moving they would be lost to her. Chaos at least could make his aura disappear, and from the way she was acting she wasn't using that blasted sword any longer. She obviously didn't have it. Good thing. He would have to do some major adjustments otherwise.
He sighed without a sound and looked at Yumi waiting for her. He hated being tracked and people following him. So many did it and tried to kill him. He had no desire to do so back to them though. He had found another life, and enjoyed it. Why ruin his wonderful life for their death wish?
