If Rokugi had reached Kazuma before Hanabira things would have taken a different path but as it stood Hanabira had been the first to speak to the trouble maker and that was lucky for them all. Kazuma heard Hanabira when she tripped so he knew she was there. When the girl approached he looked back over his shoulder at her. She started apologizing and began speaking about getting banned from the island. Kazuma opened his mouth to say he didn't care but she beat him to the punch, that was unexpected. " What do you think I drag just anyone along to start a fire?" He spoke in reply to Hanabira's question of friendship. So she wasn't exactly a friend but he was the closest thing he had on this island to one. "Hmph... What does it matter anyways? I'm not coming back here again..." He tried to act like he didn't care but truth was he was starting to see a few reasons to hang around. "Mmm... Yeah I'd like that." He answered as he got up to leave. He didn't feel to much like speaking about any of those other things, they just made him angry. Before they could leave someone shouted his name. He had no idea who it was even when they'd come close enough to see them and he wondered just how the hell it was his business? " Get lost. " Was the only answer Kazuma had for Rokugi. Turning back to Hanabira he asked her if she was coming before he headed off her place.
[Exit to Yamanaka Hanaya and possibly the next day] ((Unless Rokugi chooses to stop Kazuma))

The boy ignored completely his question as if it didnt matter at all, as if his actions where something normal. " STOP!!! are you just going to ignore me?" Rokugi walked closer to the Kun'Kumo boy trying to demand an answer. He had lived this past year in Shima being a ghost, walking around going from day to day in the academy, learning what he had to and watching the villagers move on their daily routines while he stood and looked from afar. " I dont get you! Ive seen everyone here be so kind but you , you just hurt people what for? amusement? anger? spite? Im tired of looking from afar, i want to know, i want to live what happens in the village not just see it happening. You are different and i need to know why! Dont run from your own truths" His face with determination he looked straight at Kazuma's face trying to reach into his soul and persuade him into talking. He was different from the others and Rokugi wanted to know how to be different he was having trouble choosing his own path and he needed the boy's answer to see how the boy had done it.

It wasn't a straightforward answer like most people would have given her, but it was an answer nonetheless! Hanabira knew she and Kazuma had become friends now and perhaps they always had been. Hanabira continued to smile as Kazuma agreed to coming over and having cakes. It hadn't occurred to Hanabira that she had found Kazuma first. She had spent so much time looking for Kazuma, that she figured Rokugi had come and gone. She nearly jumped out of her skin when Rokugi shouted Kazu's name. It was Rokugi, a boy that Hanabira hadn't gotten to know, but she knew of him since Kane was her 'brother.' Families shared all types of things over dinner talk. Kazuma was getting up to leave, trying to brush Rokugi aside. "Excu-" Hanabira tried to get up quickly to politely excuse them from Rokugi's interjection, but she had been too late to react as Rokugi turned around to call Kazuma to a stop. Hanabira's facial expression tightened as she listened to Rokugi's slight outburst at Kazuma. His reaction was exactly like a typical Shimagakurian's. They all dug deeper to understand the meaning of things that they couldn't figure out for themselves. The way Rokugi spoke reminded Hanabira of Karite...
Hanabira held her hands tightly, refraining from speaking. She wanted to tell Rokugi how ignorantly righteous his outburst was, but her lips did not move. Either Kazuma would continue to ignore him and walk towards the Yamanaka Hanaya or he would turn around and give this boy a piece of his mind. Hanabira walked up beside Kazuma, ready to leave. "Once you realize that you are part of a society that pressures you to conform, you'll understand," Hanabira almost whispered, not able to keep her voice silent like she always did, but barely giving it volume as well. She did not scold Rokugi for the outburst at Kazuma she had found rude or the approach to a person he barely knew to ask questions that were rather personal. Hanabira merely said something that summed it all up without giving into any details. It was best for a person to experience the pressure themselves than to be told about it. "I'm ready for cake," Hanabira said a little shakingly, surprised at herself for saying something when she was not being spoken too. Her hands rung the bottom of her light jacket, giving way that she was uncomfortable here.
Do You Realize? Hanabira has spent much of her time studying people and their behaviors. She has felt the many pressures of society's standards. The one sentence she said to Rokugi may be key to him figuring out that not everyone thinks and reacts the same way, but the values and morals of society wishes for everyone to be the same way. {You can turn this into a 3/3 exercise if you'd like, to train your sense skill!! heart } Hanabira's Persuade DC: 22
{Exit to Hanaya?}

" Yes I'm just going to ignore you BECAUSE you don't understand and you never will, that's obvious enough from how you speak of this village." Kazuma was starting to sound slightly annoyed with Rokugi. The kid had the same mindset as everyone else in the village and it was starting to get on Kazuma's nerves. "Hah! I know who I am." and just like that he blew Rokugi off, he had no desire to explain himself to anyone especially this kid. Hanbira surprised him with her little statement about the village, she was doing that alot today. "Sounds good, let's go!"

 Bringing her aunt's things onto the boat was easy. However, getting over the fact that Ayumi wouldn't come to her still bothered Aya. "Ne, ne! Koyuki, bring Ayumi over! We'll build a sand castle," Aya said with a smile, hoping that with Koyuki, who was a familiar face to Ayumi, would help in allowing her little sister to open up and get to know Aya a little better. "You know, Ayumi, your big sister is pretty pro at building castles!" Aya boasted as she knelt down in the sand and began piling up a bunch of wet and dry sand into a big pile. Kana and her had built a grand castle on the shoreline once... The two of them had often skipped school in order to spend time on the beach and in the water. The two of them never really got in trouble for skipping the academy. Aya figured that was due to the fact that they took private lessons from Ichi. The girl smiled as she began padding down the sand, remembering the good days. "C'mon Ayumi, pat it down!" Aya said, trying to make what she was doing look like tons of fun!

As Koyuki knelt in the sand next to Aya and tried to make the sand castle building look fun, Ayumi began to inch over little by little. The toddler kept taking baby steps until she was right at the sand castle. "Pat it down, Ayumi-chan," Aya said with a sweet smile on her face. Taking her finger out of her mouth, Ayumi did just that! Her little hands patted down small areas of sand, leveling out the castle. "Good job!" Aya said to her little sister. As soon as Ayumi was caught in the fun of building a sand castle, Koyuki got up. He was up early and still feeling rather sleepy. Walking to the docks, he told his mother that he'd be on the boat sleeping. Midori nodded and sat on a crate while watching Aya and Ayumi build the sandcastle. "Alright! We need more sand, dig deep and find the cold sand," Aya told her little sister as she began pawing a small hole in the sand to get some cold and moist sand for the castle.

Ayumi copied Aya and began digging a hole to get to the moist cool sand. "Ok, Ayumi! Put the sand on top," Aya said, as she took her wet sand and began to pile it up on the area they had just patted down. It would be a multi-leveled castle that would almost look like steps leading up to a point. Aya tried to mold the wet sand into steps as Ayumi piled it on. "Let's pat it down again, Ayumi!" Aya said with a smile as she began patting it down. Her sister laughed as she slapped the sand. Ayumi nearly brought the castle down as she pounded on it. "Ok, find more wet sand," Aya said sweetly to her sister as they began adding the third layer to the castle. Once there was enough sand, Aya began patting it down again. "Yay! Its done Ayumi," Aya smiled and cheered holding up her hand for her sister. "Give me a High Five!" Aya said and her sister did just that! Slapping her hand and giggling.

"Eeeuhh." Aranami yawned as he woke up, not sitting up for fear of tilting his raft. After looking around a for a second, he couldn't believe what he saw. "What? An Island? Here? According to the map..." he muttered on as he pulled the map from out under his shirt. The ink had run quite a bit over the time Aranami was using it, but it was still easy to spot the main points of the map. Sadly, he wasn't looking for a main point, so the map was pretty much useless to him now. Where the small island that he last docked on was, which had been less then a dot on the map, was now a bit bigger than the wave country. "GAH! Useless!" Aranami exclaims as he rips up the map. "I hope this is the place... if not, I should get another map anyways." Brushing his messy hair back, he looks at how toned his body has become. "I guess a month or so at sea for every couple days at land really toned my body." He thought to himself with a slight grin on his face. "Hmmmm... I should paddle, wait... crap, I lost it again!" "It must of fallen off while I was sleeping... oh, the crappy luck I have. Wait a second... crap, I'm drifting away from the island." When he realized that fact, Aranami hurried over to the side to paddle with his hands, but ending up tipping the raft in the process. "GAH!" He shouted before his horizon flipped upside down. Surfacing quickly, he noticed something about the rope on the bottom of his raft. It was fraying, and looked like it had a bit of too much stress. "C'mon raft, please don't break, please don't break." The lad muttered this while holding on to the bottom, which was now the top, of the raft. Then, of course, it broke. Sighing to himself, Aranami started the swim to the shore, wondering if this day could feasibly get worse.

Xeithx arrives on the shoreline of Shimagakure, with his father on his fishing boat. As they pull on to shore, Xeithx Jumps off the boat and lands on the soft white sand, He jumps just far enough so that he misses the water. he stud there for few seconds to and notice that the scenery here is different for them the scenery back home. Them shortly after that he was already board with it, he had notice that his father has been calling his name for the list two minutes to get back on the boat. But as always he blatantly ignores him and yet again hey takes a moment to think back upon his home in Snow Country thus making him think of his pet penguin Koga. Koga was an odd penguin, mainly because he didn't waddle like most penguins did in snow country. You see Koga was a gift to Xeithx from his mother on his ninth birthday, which shortly after he and Koge were caught in a freak accident which resulting in the breaking of Koga legs is the reason why he doesn't waddle like normal. But any way back to my father yelling and me not caring. When his father had stop his complaining and pushes his boat back off of shore and started to make his way back home but not before telling Xeithx to be safe an wait for Sorri. Xeithx looks back at him and says "Yeah Whatever go home.... bye bye now." says under his breath " Jerk!".

Sighing to himself, Aranami started the swim to the shore, wondering if this day could feasibly get worse.  As Aya gave her little sister a high-five, the girl giggled and ran over to Midori. Aya sat down in front of her sand castle and thought maybe a few finishing touches would be nice. As she got up from her castle, she walked a little closer to the shoreline scanning the sand for clam shells and anything else with a shell. As she did, her eyes drifted up from the sand and out into the sea. She noticed a boy swimming to shore. Squinting her eyes, she noticed a broken raft a few feet away from the boy. Deciding to take a step out on the water, Aya used her basic chakra controlling skills to concentrate small and even amounts of chakra to her feet. As she took a step on the water, Aya didn't sink, but floated on top of it like it weren't liquid at all, but solid ground. "Ne, ne!" the teenage girl with the light blue hair called out as she got closer to the boy swimming in the water. "Are you going to make it to shore?" she asked cutely, knowing very well that the boy probably needed a hand. Aya was more than ready to offer him one, but she was a little curious as to see whether or not he could make it! "Its less of a struggle if you float on your back," Aya told him, figuring that he was rather tired from being on a raft. The girl wasn't sure if he was just a kid from the village messing around with ship-making or a sea-stranded boy. Aya hadn't been to the village in a year, so she had thought perhaps he was a new boy from the academy. Aranami: Make it to Shore!

(Xeithx, watch you spelling and grammar. Your post is really hard to understand.)
The walk through the village had calmed Tanu down just a bit. She had relaxed so much that she was even striking up friendly conversation with Kiba. "So... You can use lightning, huh? Is that why you hits are quick, but they don't hurt?" Tanu said a little playfully as she grinned at her squad mate as they walked down the path to the shoreline. As she waited for Kiba's reaction and remark, Tanu noticed quite a few people at the shoreline. There was a few Tenmoki's getting ready to board the ship. Tanu found it strange that Yuki's family was leaving since the old hag had pampered her family members so much. Tanu also spotted Tenmoki Aya out on the water's surface. Tanu couldn't walk on water yet, but one day she would! There was a boy swimming in the water. Tanu hoped that it was Kazuma drowning... There was no sign of their squad leader yet or Hanabira, but there was one other person on the sandy shores. "No way..." Tanu laughed as her red and green eyes spotted a white haired, dark skinned boy yelling back at his father. "They're letting another worthless Ibazi on the island?" Tanu asked out loud to no one in particular. "Hey, Ibazi!" she shouted, bringing up her hands to cup around her mouth. "Get back on the boat and go home!" the girl yelled, so that everyone who was on the shore could hear here.
(+1 Kiba: Complimenting agility... in a way.)

As Aranami started swimming to shore, he noticed he was struggling a bit. "Maybe I was more tired than I thought." He thought to himself. After swimming for a little bit, he heard a voice. He paused for a second and looked around. "GAH!" was all that came to Aranami's mind when he saw the girl walking on the water. "Am I dreaming? Someone walking on the water? Well, her advice sounds useful... I'll try it." "Uh, ok..." he said while flipping over onto his back. "Oh, this is easier!" He exclaimed as he noticed a difference immediately. He heard another voice in the distance, but didn't pay much attention to it, since he was more curious about this strange girl. "So, uh, I got a couple of questions, if you don't mind of course." Aranami said as he wondered how she was able to do that trick.

 Aya smiled brightly at Aranami's surprise. She had thought he was surprised by her merely be next to him so suddenly, not by her ability to walk on water. As the boy floated on his back, he asked her if she wouldn't mind a couple of questions. "Sure! But I don't know too much about sturdy raft building," the girl answered with a smile as she walked casually next to the boy. The waters were pretty steady today. "Good thing you're going with the tide to shore," Aya pointed out, knowing that if the boy were to angle himself with the tide and give a little kick, he'd make it there in no time. As she did, she looked to the shoreline and saw two familiar faces; Tanu and Kiba. Of course, Tanu was shouting at someone. Squinting her eyes, Aya tried to see who. The person looked like Sorri, but not exactly... Was there a new Ibazi on the island? "Tanu be nice!" the girl called out to the beach. A Kun Kumo shouting always meant trouble...
Aranami: +3 to next roll if he stays angled with the current.

Aranami looked at Aya for a couple of seconds, then started laughing at the raft comment, while trying to check the tide so he could angle himself better, however, the combination of the two actions made him lose his concentration and slip under the water for a few seconds. As the water flowed into his open mouth, he noticed how salty and bitter it was as he tried to resurface. After a couple of seconds under, Aranami was finally able to get back up to the surface, and he gagged for air and spit out some water. "Ok, well, I guess I'll first ask, where am I?" Aranami asked while he just floated upon the water. "Secondly, how are you able to walk upon the surface of water, cause that is a really cool trick." Thinking for a second, he then said, "I guess I should introduce myself, I'm Mouchou Aranami, who are you?"
