The City of Durem

[H4X]

Kinuko wandered through the city. Her hair blowing around due to the cold winds. She wasn't exactly dressed for the season, but she kept a grace about her as she walked down the city streets.

She stopped as she neared the outskirts of the city, looking towards the sky then back down at a map. She had a rough idea where she would be heading but considering the time of day she began to doubt she'd make it before nightfall. After a few moments thought she turned back towards the city, adjusting the backpack she carried so she would be able to take if off quickly.

She supposed for a moment her target might make an appearance in the town, but considering her luck she expected the woman probably would be gone by the time she arrived at the supposed location of this Dojo she had heard rumors of.

Lina sighed as she approached the city, Harris's scan had been cut short by all her equipment being forced into Grey mode by two reactors going out at once. She was carrying the equipment back towards the town, both reactors safely tucked into a very old traveling trunk, seemingly floating behind her ontop of the Rai barrior she was projecting subconsciously. She supposed being able to use basic techniques that well was why she always managed to get by without flashy magic, but upon thinking that through more she felt it somewhat more likely it was due to always having about forty-some-odd tricks up her sleeves.

Her hair was in the braided style she had taken on in the past few years, still remaining brown for reasons she hadn't figured out after fixing a few curses. She shook her head, remembering the antique store she normally frequented for getting parts, she more or less had accumulated a mental list of everything in the store by now, knowing much of the stranger trinkets there were really parts the migrants from her realm forgot to use over the generations. Knowing this made it easy to get the parts quickly, but at the same time she needed both reactors with her, she wanted to make sure she could modify them for any slight oddities, obviously reactor parts weren't meant to be plug and play.

As she entered the Durem gates she saw a familiar shade of brown hair, on a woman wearing bright red a short distance away. She shook her head at the thought that seemed too much of a coincidence to be true. Although she supposed a quick scan wouldn't hurt, even if everyone she knew thought they told anyone using them too much information. After a few quick thoughts Lina wall hopped up onto a roof, pulling the trunk up after her. After a moment she was running along the rooftops trying to be stealthy as she attempted to get a few scans in.

Kinuko sniffed the air a few times. Somewhat glad she had encountered a pack of dogs earlier that day. The enhanced sense of smell defiantly put her on guard, there weren't many people on the street and the new smell wasn't coming from street level. Not to mention it smelled of fox.

Her eyes twitched upwards, keeping the eyes open for movements. Her hand twitched to her side, preparing to drop her pack at a moment's notice, trying to make it seem like she was just adjusting the straps. She quickly did a mental check on her energy reserves. She smirked, her reserves were at full and she was already drawing in excess energy.

A small cross shaped mark appeared on her left arm, just below the bandages as the excess chakra took shape. Her attacks were mostly spirit based, but storing them as chakra usually made her stamina decline slower then normal. Her eyes glanced movement of a young girl on the rooftops, moving in a very ninjish way. It seemed she might have found an escort, willing or otherwise if she wanted to find her target.

Kinuko sighed at the hasty retreat, it seemed either this ninja was just scouting, or had already accomplished whatever objective was her goal. She shook her head and started sprinting at street level, keeping close to the buildings to block her escort's vision. After a few more buildings she formed her staff and swung it towards the ground, attempting a pole vault onto the roofs, releasing the staff at the apex of her ascent. A moment later and the staff was reforming in her hands, before becoming solid to prevent the ki drain. A few more rooftops and she'd have caught up the girl.

Lina sighed and relaxed, quickly gathering a few objects from the store and comparing them to the units she had brought along, after a few quick checks Lina tossed a few strange cube shaped objects to the owner and took what she had bought. After a quick check to make sure he approved of the trade she left, quickly, making sure to stick to the shadows as she made her way out of the town, beginning the trek back towards the dojo at a hurried pace.

Kinuko sighed as she spotted her mark. She kept a long distance, relying on the enhanced sense of smell she borrowed and somewhat on her tracking skills to ensure she wasn't noticed but kept on the trail. After a short while she increased her pace, knowing that she'd have to keep closer once they hit the treeline.
