Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Yeah, I know. My friend is ANBU though and she has her own place, and that's what I would like to do rather than staying here," Yumiko explained. She looked back at Sukiru, getting over the memories of her parents.

The smile on his face went away quickly."yeah,its best not to..." he mumbled."oh,now that i think about it,do you know where this cure is?"

Chi thought for a bit, glancing up at the sky. "That's my issue... I don't know... I've been trying to do research about my clan history to see where this illness started and find what other medicines have done to help or make it worse. I've got that at my house, but other than that, nothing seems to be working..." She perked up when she heard Shijura, smiling a bit when she saw their friend with Rhea. "Hey there Shijura. Now much. Just looking for... well... a cure to my Clan illness..."

Yumiko raised an eyebrow at him but she nodded and took the kunai, keeping one with herself. "Alright. I'll be back when I'm done." With a small respectful bow, she disappeared from the room. First she delivered the kunais to other ANBU members, then she thought for a bit and tracked down Chishio and the others wandering the village. "Hey there Sho. Chishio. Shijura. The Hokage wanted you to hold onto these. He's just being protective of his Shinobi, so he's giving each of us one of his special kunais. Just don't lose them. They let him appear by our sides if we're in danger, and the kunais tell him when we need help. Get it?"

Chishio paused when Yumiko stopped in front of them, taking one of the kunais and listening to the instructions. When Yumiko finished, Chi merely scratched the back of her head. "I think I get it... maybe..."

Sho nodded then took one of the kunais.
((ooc: ugh! stupid short post!))

The Sixth was pacing about the room, his chin cupped in his hand as he was thinking. "Thank you Yumiko, and good work. You can have the rest of the day off unless I need you." he said, still pacing.

On the outer edge of the village, three Shinobi with headbands that had only a hawk's talon engraved on them appeared in the forest, steadily advancing toward the Hidden Leaf's walls, not tripping a single trap on their advance.

Yumiko watched the Sixth pace for a bit, biting her lip slightly. "Of course, Sukiru-sama..." With that, she left through the window again and headed towards the Leaf Village Walls. Guess there really is a lot on his mind... she thought, scanning the outside of the village. Ever since she became ANBU, she always felt an urge to keep a constant watch over her village. Yumiko remained quiet, isolated from the others on watch. It let her remain calm and focused. Of course, that's until Juunibi decided to show up. There was a small quick flash of her necklace again, and Juunibi's three tailed wolf cub form appeared beside her, the two of them watching the surrounding forest together.

"Really? Thanks a lot Shijura. Rhea," Chishio said brightly. It was nice to be able to count on friends, though the subject was still sensitive. After all, she was one of the very few, if not the only, member left of the Kaguya clan. It was the last chance to discover a cure of the mysterious illness, and her life was on the line for it.

"Well the illness is only in my clan, so I've been gathering everything I can on the history of the Kaguya clan for a while. A few attempts in the past have done a little to help, but the end result was always inevitable..." Chishio thought for a bit. Actually, she was just coming up on her next lead to finding the cure, but the issue was that it was on private files. "U-um... my next lead of information involves going to the Hokage for a bit..."
