With the two taking up their positions she would smile a bit,"You need to stop worrying about who they fear more. Things like that do not matter, as long as they do I am satisfied. Anything beyond that is just feeding ego's." With that she turned on heel and clicked her way out of the dojo building. Following the railing she waved to Rentaru,"I am heading out for a few to go shopping Ren-chan. I will be back in a few hours~" With that she pushed open the door and headed into the village proper.
Ayuna walked into the barracks ahead of his friends by about a day and a half, looking to procure a place for them to sleep for a cou0le of nights and a place to train. He would clearly be interested by how his eyes fluttered about the place.
With a happy sigh, the young woman pushed open the door to her Inn and called happily,"I'm home!" As always she was greeted with the smiles and cheers she always was. It felt good to belong to this little family of hers. Plus it did not hurt that her patrons all liked her due to her fair prices on exceptional quality food and drink. Seeing the young man she smiled,"Good day young man. Welcome to the Armistead, we have everything you could need, food, drink, sleep, and even a small training area in the back." Gesturing to the guard at the booth she continued,"Please check your weapons there and then have a seat anywhere you want. Miss Tatsuya will be with you shortly."

A Y U N A 病 I T O Wicked Flight
Ayuna turned towards the person who had called out that they were home. A smile that couldn't possibly belong to a mastermind in training graced his face as he bowed to the woman. "To you as well, and thank you." he would remove his backpack and sit it where she had pointed before taking a seat where she had motioned. "Beautiful place you have here ms..."/ he would trail off hoping to catch her name.
"A-yu! I missed you so badly! Working in the mines is soooo boooring! They wouldn't even let me use my clay." Hikari entered the Armistead like a ball of energy, loud and quickly. She had aquired a new set of clothing since arriving in Takumi, if one could really call it clothing. Her body was essentially only covered enough to protect the totality of her modesty and it was made of a skintight material that left little to the imagination. Ger gun was slung around her shoulder and hung about her backside, she bore no other weapons save for a handful of kunai. "Who's the lady friend?"
___Hiroki stretched, and yawned as he entered the barracks. He was looking for some grub, maybe a shower after taking a dip in the river for some quick cash. He was surprised to run almost directly into the back of Hikari. Not that he'd have minded that much if he did, but, well... she wasn't really his variety of crazy. White eyes darted around the area, settling on Ayuna. It seemed his companion was quite the busy bee, having already found someone else to enrapture. For his part Hiroki was less interested in that element. When you thieved with the frequency he did, there was a bit of an advantage to not being well introduced.
So many things happened so very quickly. The small young man was quite polite in his speech but she had learned long ago not to trust a man with a cute smile. When he complimented her establishment she dipped her head,"Thank you. I am quite proud of it. As far as my name, just call me Tsuki, or like the rest of my staff, mom." Though her attention was pulled from the young man by a young woman. At first Tsuki did not know quite what to make of the young woman. Her outfit was quite promiscuous, though she could not say anything about it to the young woman. After all there was a time when she herself wore attire quite similar to it. Nothing wrong with a woman being proud of her body. After all, if you had it, flaunt it. Though her weapon was an issue. Gesturing to Ichiro she smiled softly but without a shadow of a doubt of it being a question,"Miss, please check your weapon with Ichiro. It will be returned to you upon your departure."
Finally turning her attention to the final man she examined him with a mothers eye. Those white eyes, she had seen them a dozen times before back in Konoha and knew quite well what that likely entailed. Though for all intents and purposes' he could be like her with an abnormal eye color,"Same with you young man. Then we can get you all some food and baths." Turning on heel she followed the upper railing until it reached the stairs to the lower level. Making her way to her favorite spot next to one of the fire pits she gestured for Tatsuya to bring her, her regular dinner.
It was Toshio who's eyes fell on Hikari as he hung his head back over the chair to watch her approach. He allowed the false smile to paint into his features and offered a wave to her, turning so he could face his would-be bodyguard and companion. "I missed you too dear. Studying medical procedures is a snore. Certainly lacks that... climactic charm of yours." Still, as his head hung as it did, Tsuki couldn't see how his eyes picked at her features and form. Hikari could, however, and he made it a point not to linger too much. He appreciated the girl's entire persona, and he intuitively knew she liked being appreciated. It was when the ingrate came in that he whistled for him and offered another wave. "Tsuki, is her name, dear," Ayuna offered to the white haird beauty. He turned back to Tsuki. "This is one of my travel buddies, Hikari. The other is a mite shy, so if he wants to introduce himself I think he will when he's ready. I should have one more on his wat as well. Older fellow." He got up and followed Tsuki, speaking softly. "I was hoping to acquire a pair of rooms for the night?" he asked her, listening as she hailed for food.

___Hiroki smirked in Ayuna's direction. "I'm the shy one but you introduce Hikari?" He ignored the suggestion that he hand over his weapons for obvious reasons. The woman he looked over would have to engage in a bout of exceptional literalism in her interpretation of disarm to achieve that particular feat. That aside, he found the request strange. Was this not a dojo among its many other functions? Ayuna had described it as such. Hiroki supposed it didn't matter, since they weren't in charge, though he did have a love of opposing authority, and said opposition required its inverse to be enjoyable. He tugged absently at the safety pin in his ear. "Hey Ayu, you figure out how to make my eyes look different yet? The Hyuga's trademark draws a bit too much attention for my taste. Plus I'd prefer if they matched my hair."
While she waited for her room, her manager, Rentaro, made himself known by delivering the months reports. Most notably was the expenses and income sheet. Taking it in hand she examined the numbers with a practiced mind. Her profits were on the rise on account of the cheaper food costs. While the dojo portion of her building was not officially open for business the projections were looking food for expansion. With food, housing and training taken care of, soon it would be time to branch into manufacturing of weapons and armors. Her long term plan was starting to come into fruition, now she would need bodies to fill those beds and hold those arms.
Gesturing to the young man who followed her she set down the papers, face down. "Normally a bed is one fifty per person per night. This includes food and a bath. But, I do so love stories and meeting new people. So, if you can tell me about that happy group of yours, I'll give them to you for free." The statement caused Rentaro to adopt a slightly sour face before walking off but she ignored him entirely. After all, it was her business to run as she pleased. And four hundred and fifty ryo was a easy cost to pay for knowing the measure of a man.

Hikari had a look upon her face which spoke to her confusion about being asked to turn over her weapons. Not only did she get hung up on the fact that this was a dojo, but why bother taking her rifle when her hands could create explosives? The only thing slightly more confusing was the idea of calling this woman mom. Whatever, if she needed it to train she would come fetch the thing and no man or woman would prevent her from claiming that beauty. Soon after handing over the Knife Mk1 she chased after Ayuna with a blush still on her face from the climatic comment.
___Hiroki sighed and followed the view, and as a result Hikari, down the hall. There wasn't much he really wanted to do, and he was at least as curious in Ayuna's purpose here as he was Hikari's a**. Hopefully it'd be more interesting than diving in a lake, and the bath sounded good, to be honest. Soaking in something warm and clean would be welcome after a day in a dank, dreary river digging through the mud.
