Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kiyoko sighed and watched as she left. She had met him already, and if she were to show up now it might make him think she was against him which wasn't the case. Rios said something and she shook his head writing.

At the moment I don't think it would be a good idea. There is no telling how many people are their right now and with so many people distrusting him it might be a bad idea. if there is no other reason to see him other than just meeting him, I think keeping your distance is wise. She explained looking to Matsuya.

Do you agree? I mean he needs someone to trust him...not someone to keep barraging him She said lightly.

"Yeah, I guess your right, though I would like to learn some new moves, help out with picking up some ladies." Rios laughed, but now that he thought about it, what did he want to learn? He didn't even know how to go about it. The second Rios graduated from the academy he was put in a squad that repeatedly goes on patrol through out the country side. Extremely boring, and no time to train at all. "Do you guys wanna head out to the training grounds?"

Kiyoko kept her thoughts to herself. She trusted the kage, she had to, and somehow she felt she needed to. There was a bit of distrust there, but she had to remember, it was the sand village government that had done the bad things not the individual people. But Matsuya was right, eventually they would have to go see him. Rios asked about training and she shook her head. And wrote again.

Training sounds like a good idea but before we do we'll need to go visit the kage, so either way it works looks like we are going to go see him, you up for it? She asked. She then looked to Matsuya.

I guess it's a good idea we go seem him then. I need to get a scroll from him anyway and it would be a good chance to get to know more about him. She explained to him.

Rios sighed at Kiyoko's written message, "Its so troublesome, but I guess it has to be-" his sentence was cut off from someone slamming their fist into the table, causing Rios to jolt in his chair and turn his head in the general direction of the couple, it was his first time actually looking at the couple and taking in their details. He didn't mean to be prying, or a nuisance, so he turned away back to Kiyoko and Matsuya as he leaned back in his chair further and folded his arms, "So I guess its settled then, we should go visit the Mizukage then." He rose from his chair and through down a wad of cash for the meal. He hurried over to grab his groceries off the counter and tipped Nikko generously before heading back over to the table with his friends. "You guys ready to go?" Rios was half excited to see the new Kage, but also half worried about this new person who didn't belong. It seemed like he wasn't the only person who didn't like the new 'kage'.

Kiyoko was listening to Rios when she too was startled by a loud slam on the table behind him. She glanced in that direction, and had to force herself not to read his mind. He was with another girl and she didn't know what the issue was about but privacy was a good thing so he turned her attention back to Rios. He paid for his meal and grabbed his things. She stood up paying for her own things and nodded when he asked if they were ready to go. She looked to Matsuya.

Are you coming? Other than speaking to him she didn't delve into his mind. She had felt bad for doing so earlier, and knew that she was going to be helping him to block her later, so she might as well get used to it.

Happy to have made new friends, Rios was glad to lead the way with grocies in one hand, the other stuffed into his pockets looking for his always lost carton of cigarettes and a lighter that could never be found until five minutes after he started looking for them. Rios was in a pleasant mood for the most part, he had a good meal in his belly and some new fascinating friends at his side. He didn't he notice till he was already out of the restaurant and down the street some ways, that he was humming a pleasant drinking tune in his scruffy voice, it sounded like a seasoned veteran on those warm nights out in the trenches during his time of service. Seemed like a life time ago.

Exit towards Mizukages office.

Matsuya followed the two as they started to walk towards the Mizukage's Tower. He found the tune LT hummed to be soothing. He kept looking at his feet as he walked. Maybe this ability of his wasn't something he should hide. It was useful for some things. And some people wouldn't find it strange. After all, Matsuya's parents had been hunter-nin and they'd been able to do the same thing. Matsuya sighed and kept walking. He'd think about it later. Now wasn't the time to get depressed. He was with his friends.

EXIT TO MIZUKAGE TOWER

He was honestly starving and taking up his chopsticks, Axel began to work on his food. "Seriously though, stop talking about fate as something that can't be stopped...I control my own destiny," he began as his mouth was full of food. Half of his words were garbled, but he was so hungry that he didn't care. "Someday I'll become the best medical shinobi, strong enough to stop death, you'll see!" he exclaimed confidently, a childish look on things, or a rather confident and bold statement. Regardless, Axel was now back to his normal high spirited self.
