Welcome to Gaia! ::

When Tori got home, she found her father out back sitting beside the koi pond. "Otousama, I need to speak with you."

"It's about your nightmares, isn't it?" Taki asked as he looked up from the pond at his daughter. "I was wondering when you were going to come and ask me about it." He got up from the bench and motioned for her to follow. They went inside and to his private room where he stopped beside a wall. He made some hand seals and there was a clicking sound. He slid open the secret compartment in the wall and pulled out a bundle. "This is what you were wearing when I found you."

Tori took the bundle and set it on the floor and untied it. Inside was clothes and weapon pouches. She held up the top and blinked at it. It was rather...revealing. I wore stuff like this? Then again, I rather like it. Too bad it wouldn't fit anymore...it's covered in blood anyway. She started feeling a little sick when she realized that some of the blood belonged to Li. She quickly put the clothes aside and picked up the next item. She looked at her father with wide eyes and he nodded.

"Yes, the village we found you in was very close to the Hidden Mist Village. Even when I found you, only sixteen at the time, you had the skills of a Jounin. The claws you use now you had at the time too."

Tori looked down at the Mist headband in her hand and didn't know what to think.

((Umm...Nothing much really...Ran is still in the hosptail and Mai-lin is just sitting there so that Himi can keep Ran compnay. Mai-lin went to go get somethings and on her way there ran into Kei who had found Tori's copy of Li and Mai-lin and gave it to Mai-lin, thnking it was her's. Mai-lin got really happy, thainking that the person that killed Li was in the people they had fought and Ran had killed. On the way back to the hosptail, Mai-lin trips and the two pictures get pulled away in a breeze. Mai-lin is able to get her's but the other one falls in front of Tori who picks it up and basicly thanks Mai-lin for finding the picture. Mai-lin starts to question Tori to find out why she has Li's picture and Tori tells Mai-lin a little bit about what she can remember of her life before Konoha. Tori then leaves and goes to talk to her dad. Mai-lin goes back to the hosptail and is now crying because she's confussed. That sounds about right.))

((Konohamaru is with some ANBU where the attack was trying to figure out what happened while Yuhi is looking for Anekio and Tori to talk to them about it. Kei is going to talk with his father about the picture not knowing that Mai-lin had already found out who had it.))

Tori wasn't in the tower and I've searched everywhere else I can think of. Guess I'll start looking for Anekio... Yuhi thought as he ran over rooftops looking for the Jounin. It's too early for her to be at one of the clubs Maybe she's eating? He headed for the market district and began searching the stalls and vendors.

Yuhi stopped on a high roof and looked around, and took a moment to catch his breath. A moment later he smiled. "There she is." He jumped over to another roof, then down to the ground before approaching the ramen stand. "You know, you're really a pain to find when you're needed." He sat beside her and decided that he too was hungry and ordered something.

"It's about what happened earlier." Yuhi said and lowered his voice. "ANBU are there right now doing their stuff and my father's there as well. The Hokage is planning on sending some people out to search for the leader and to try and gather more information about them." He nodded his head in thanks as his food was set in front of him. "I heard there were Genin there, is everyone okay? There was quite a bit of blood..."

"Itadakimasu." Yuhi said, then dug into his food. "So, who else was there other than Tori-san? From the amount of damage done on the bodies, they must be pretty strong."

Swallowing a small bite of her own food, she tried not to laugh, "Well, I guess I could...but you'd probably just flirt with the enime." She grinned again, it was amusing to use Yuhi's perverted nature against him. "Maybe he was already planning it."

"Some times you have to flirt for information. What do you take me for?" She took another small bite of her food before adding, "Besides, most men know Konoha kunochi reputations. You don't seem focused all the time." She let out a quiet giggle. "'Specially since you seem to like little genin."
