Ume laughed quietly a little at Kibas reaction, half expecting as much. "You're welcome." she replied lightly. Turning her attention to Akamaru, a smile spread out across Umes face. "Akamaru's a beautiful dog." she complimented.

Ano smiled and accepted the paton the head. "Thanks for the invite. I hope I'll be able to do just that soon." She stopped talking when there was a puff of smoke and a note appeared on the ground in front of Ano. "That's from Setsu..." She muttered and picked it up. She opened it and as she read it her eyes widened. "The intuder ninja have been found and they are from Konohakagure. We haven't had contact with that village for about a millenia... I better check this out. See you two later! I'll have to meet that black pup later also." And with a puff of smoke, she disappeared and appeared beside her brother who was currently staring at some green glad ninja. What's going on here?" SHe demanded in her most impressive voice. It was actually quite a tone for a 16 girl to own.
Setsu had delivered the note, while keeping an eye on the spandex ninja who smelled of sweat. The more he looked the more he realized how ridiculous the ninja looked and how much he liked it. "I'm Tenichi Setsu. I'm a chunnin from Ookamikagure. Who might you be?" He was being polite becuase he thought he really liked this one. He had more character than the other two.
"Okamikagure...?" Shino muttered. He had thought that the village only existed in myth. Yes there was mention of it when his village was first founded. It had said they had recieved help in building their village from a village who had shape-shifters. If the village really existed then these ninja were their allies. Even if they had not had contact for many years.
"But your kinda has not been seen for a millenia."

Ume turned to face Ano and bowed a little. "Hello Ano-sama. I was just elping these three. Something happened and they don't appear to be enemies so I assisted them." she said to her leader then turned to face Shino. "It's true, we haven't been around in a while but that doesn't mean we died out...We were-" Ume didn't know how to finish that sentence and turned back to Ano. "Ano-sama, why haven't we been seen for such a long time or allowed to go very far out of the village?"
"Eh?" Lee got out of his fighting stance and looked at Setsu with a somewhat proud look. "I'm Rock Lee, Konohas beautiful green beast!" he introduced himself before flashing his signature "nice-guy" pose complete with the bright smile.

Looking over the three ninja, she decided she should explain. "Many moons ago a priestess in our village predicted that an epic battle would be fought between Sound and Leaf. It was decided by the first Ookamikage that we were to not have any more contact with the villages until our help was needed. The first Ookamikage was my great-great-great.... oh well you get the point. I am a desendent of him and the current Ookamikage. Not many know about that prediction because it has been forgotten by those that are not from the the ancient family." Ano finished and gulped in lungfuls of air. "Man I never thought I would have to deal with this..." She sweatdropped and sighed.
Since Setsu had known all this and had learned it by heart for preperation when he was to compete for the title of Ookamikage. Not that he really wanted it. "You are quite a beautiful beast if I might say so myself." The shape-shifter licked his lips as he let his gaze wander over the well muscled body of Lee.
Shino stared at the new addtion. She was looked about 16 and was quite young to be a leader of a village. "My my you must be strong to have won leadership of your village I am impressed."

Ume listened to the entire story intently absorbing every word. "Wow...That's really amazing." she said after Ano had finished. She turned back to Shino and smiled. "That's why we haven't been seen lately." She heard Sestus comment and walked over, punching him in the arm lightly. "Setsu! Watch what you say, this isn't someone from our own village you know." Ume blushed a little. Even though it was Setsu who made the comment, she'd be embarrassed for him
"Er, um. Thanks?" Lee didn't know whether to be flattered or frightened. "You have nice ears...?" he complimented the other, unsure of how it would be taken.

"Yes well this is quite a surprise for me. I did not expect this to happen after so many years. Ah well," Ano said and sniffed the air. She turned to Shino and asked. "You are a bug master are you not?" When he nodded she smiled. "We have not met one of your kind in a while. I have not met one ever. I am Tenichi Ano. Pleased to meet you all."
"Ow!" Setsu said as he rubbed the spot Ume had punched. "What? He is quite cute and there is no one else in our village I am attracted to." His ears perked up when Lee complimented them. "You really think so?" He smiled and his tail started to wag.
Shino watched the conversation between Setsu and Lee. He reminds me of Naruto... Shino thought as he watched Setsu. He was like an over eager puppy.

Ume huffed and turned away and walked back over to Kiba again. "Whatever." she mumbled, not wanting to start something with Setsu at the moment.
Lee watched Setsu suddenly perk up and nodded. "Yes, I do." he confirmed. Inwardly he was resisting the urge to go out and touch Setsu ears, just to see if they were real.

Kiba hadn't paid attention to any of the conversation that had just gone on, like always. He'd ask Shino later if it was important, but right now he was more interested in the shape shifter in front of him. "Akamaru is a great dog, I couldn't have asked for a better friend." he gave a whistle and the dog trotted over to them. "You can pet him if you'd like, he only bites those who threaten me."
Amaya and Ryoku looked at each other for a moment before they both took off running in the direction Ano had gone. A few minuets before they reached the group, Ryoku shifted into his wolf form and moved closer to his sister. When they got into the small clearing, they both stopped in their tracks.
"Ookamikage, are we taking them into custody for trespassing?" Amaya asked as she looked the group over, her nose wrinkling with the mixed scents.
Ryokus fur stood on end and he growled at the strangers, his yellow-green eyes locked onto Kiba and Akamaru. I don't trust them.
No surprise there. Amaya thought with a sigh. If Ano-sama says they're okay then you must follow her orders. I won't be responsible if you start another unnecessary fight.

Ume smiled and knelt down to scratch Akamaru behind the ears, her tail wagging slowly behind her happily. "I can see why he's your best friend. He's really great and I've only known him for a few minutes." she murmured then turned to look at Ryoku and Amaya. "Hello Ryoku and Amaya-san." she greeted the two, her voice sounding distant.

Now that Ume was closer to face level with Akamaru, the giant dog took the opportunity to begin washing her face. His own tail was wagging at the attention he was receiving and he could tell that this was a good person. The fact that she smelled more like dog, or wolf, than human just made him like her more.
"Akamaru, what did I tell you about giving people baths?" Kiba said but was laughing as he watched the scene. His laughter faded though when he saw a large black wolf staring him down and growling. "Er, nice doggie?"
Ryoku gave off warning barks and took a few steps closer to the Inuzuka. If he doesn't move away from her in five seconds, he's going down.
"Don't you even dare, Ryoku! They may be guests!" Amaya snapped.

Ume closed her eyes and tried to pull back from Akamarus face when she heard Ryoku barking. The female got up and looked at the wolf, her face looking somewhat surprised. "Ryoku, it's fine. They aren't enemies." she tried to reassure him.

This time Akamarus hair was raised and he was growling, his eyes locked onto the wolf that threatened his master. "Easy Akamaru." Kiba put a hand on Akamarus back, but he remained in his defensive stance.
"That's it!" Amaya gathered chakra into her hand, then hit her brother with it, forcing him to revert to his human form. "Don't give me that look! You're not a child so stop acting like one. Just because they're not from our village means you have to attack them."
"That's not the point!" Ryoku growled at his sister before going over and standing right in front of the Inuzuka. "You better watch yourself around here or you'll find my teeth around your neck." he moved over and grabbed Ume by the arm and forcibly pulled her away from the Inuzuka. "You stay away from him, Ume! He's not from our village."

In a flash, Ano dropped to all fours and she was in her wolf form. Her purple eyes locked on Ryoku and in a flying leap she landed on him nad her jaw was on his neck. She growled as she diverted back to her human forn, but her sharp teeth were still on his neck. She scrapped it lightly and a trickle of blood appeared. Ano let go of Ryoku and growled again. "Your are not to attack these ninja. They are our allies from many moons ago. I wouldn't expect a child to know of our history since your were not educated on the subject." She had never resorted to violence since she had won the title of Ookamikage, but this was a serious matter. She was not a fan of violence either. Turning to Kiba, she walked right up to him and bowed. "I am sincerely sorry for my subordinate attacking you and your dog. He will not do it again." Sending another glare at Ryoku, she went back to the business at hand. "Now what is your name? If I may ask."
Setsu had ignored both Ryoku's attack and his sister's disipline of him. "I can see that my ears fascinate you. Are you sure you would not like to touch them?"
Shino had watched the display with wide eyes behind his sunglasses. "I have never seen this form of punishment in any village... But they are not like any other village. Their punishments are admistered as if they were a pack." Shino had been thinking this and it seemed he had uttered it aloud.

Ryoku got up onto his knees from where he'd been knocked down, wiping at the blood that trickled down his neck. "If you are not going to protect our pack from outsiders, then someone has to do it." he growled back at Ano before storming off, giving the others a glare as he passed.
"I-I'm so sorry, Ano-sama, I don't know what's gotten into him!" Amaya bowed her head in shame at her brothers actions. "We should allow these visitors to stay in the village for the night so they can recover their strength before going back to their own home."
"I-Inuzuka Kiba and this is Akamaru." he said and put his hand on his dogs head again to try and calm him down. He was still wired up and it was passing over to him, his own hair a bit on end at what just happened. "I'm sorry if I did something wrong." Kiba also bowed his head in apology.

"It is no problem Ayame-san. I should have expected something of this nature to happen... I would not be surprised if he challenge me for leadership of the village after this. He has been hulmliated and is angered and ashamed of it." Ano said to Ayame. She smiled sadly and then it brightened to a happy smile as she turned back to Kiba. "Well Kiba I am pleased to meet you. And your partner Akamaru." She petted the dog, ready to accpt any hostile behavior. She had delt with new born pups tha were distrustful, but she took their behavior. Her eyes still on Kiba, she smiled and her sharp canines poked out. "You are quite handsome Kiba."
