What an intriguing question. She would hope that the meek could rule, the way the rulers are now doesn't seem to work so well. So much violence, so much blood shed. She did wish it would all stop, but she knew it didn't seem likely. "To be honest I don't think that will happen. I'd love to see a shift in power, but there is a reason why the evil in the world exists. They are violent and merciless. While the meek may be pure and kind hearted, it always seems the evil takes control. I feel like too much power corrupts. And I hate to say that, but it is true. I think the best way to keep someone from becoming corrupt is proper training and upbringing." She felt like she could go on about this topic forever, but she would try her best to put it into a simple answer. "I have to agree with you that the meek will never rule. I feel they lack the ambition and will. But I do not, and the best I could do is help the meek. It is the duty of those that can to do it. At least that's how I feel."
She gave him a reassuring smile. "Do not worry my intentions will always be what they are now. I have been through emotional turns in my short life. Ups and downs. But there is always one constant...." She said letting her sentence trail off a bit. Her tone matched her facial expression. It was dead serious; there was no doubt in her words. This was as true to her as anything she has ever known. "I will always protect the ones I love. I have to do the right thing to do that. Going down the wrong path will cause my motivation to falter. I can put people in danger with the wrong decisions. That's just something I can't afford to do.." She leaned back in her chair and snuggled in to her cloak kind of sinking down in to it.
The next question he asked was a very serious one; she kind of wondered where this was all coming from. But it was a legitimate question. It was one of the things she needed to be ready for, because this could easily happen. She would hope it wouldn't, and her teachings would help guide people correctly. Sadly she knows that no matter what she does, you truly can't change a person. Who they are is who they are, nothing anyone can do to change that. She sat quietly after his question battling answers inside of her mind. Some were so heroic sounding, others tender and motherly. But there were so many thoughts in her mind on what she would do, they all seemed to vanish as this one thought presented itself. "Well Drago.... I wish I had a better answer for you but sadly I don't. I have no idea what I would do. I would like to think I would be able to prevent that from happening, but I know its something I may have no control over. I don't know what I would do if that situation ever occured." She said letting out a soft sigh following her answer. She looked down at the table as her mind wandered playing out situations over and over in her head. But still, uncertainty....
She snapped out of her day dream and looked up at him watching as he formed a snow ball. His hands were so fast; she had trouble keeping up with his speed. She herself was fast, but nothing compared to her master. Once he was finished a flick of his wrist and the snowball flew it's course interrupted by the waiter. She watched and let out a light laugh, quickly covering her mouth with her hand and looking away as the waiter looked for the culprit. "Drago you are going to get us in trouble!" She said stifling her laughter the best she could. She loved when Drago did silly things like this though. She just loved to laugh, and he knew how to make her laugh no matter her mood or train of thought. The waiter came over to the table and glared at Drago before placing another tea pot down, and wiping off the snow that was left on his shoulder. While this was going on Micha could do nothing more than just stare at the ground, looking away from the waiter and Drago. Once she heard his footsteps leave the area she glanced up at Drago staring at him. "I wouldn't drink that tea..... Just saying." She smirked.
"Lots of questions for me today huh? This one is a bit easier. IF the world no longer needed to be saved I would prepare the next generation, because they may need to take the reins and save it themselves." She said almost a little too excited. She had thought about this many many times. She doesn't sleep, well more accurately she can't. So she always had time to lay and just day dream. And if she herself couldn't help save the world, or didn't have to. She would make sure whoever had to was ready for the job.

Drago nodded and listened to her. She was wise. One of the reasons he enjoyed talking to her. She didn't quickly spit answers to impress him. She thought her answers through and constantly proved that she could have done many things, but she chose to be a ninja. He tapped his fingers against the counter.
"If there is meekness in ruler ship.. then we would be out of a job. But then again I guess the less we are needed the better the world is huh? The rate that there has been ninjas is alarming... they start younger and younger. Our whole youth has been turned into soldiers and ready to die for their country. What happened to being young?"
Drago smiled. He thought it was the best to help the meek. Even if they had the power to defend themselves... somebody would need to protect them. So that the people with the power wouldn't rule absolutely. She was correct in her words. He remembered one of his pupil. The one that tried his best to keep him true and golden.
"I had one student that had always tried to keep me on the straight and narrow. He knew me in my younger days and I knew him then too. He saw when I aligned myself with evil.. He tried so hard to bring me back to the good. Because he didn't want me to walk that path. I didn't engage him. I didn't strike him.. because I feel it is important to see every aspect of life. Never forget this... Right and wrong are just words. All that matters is your actions."
He then noticed the waiter angry. He could tell that he wanted to scream and yell but he knew they were in the tea house. The thing about people is that their honor kept them from doing what they really wanted. For some reason they always wanted to do more but they always did less. He then turned to her and smiled when the waiter brought over the fresh pot of tea. He looked at it and he nodded.
"Yeah you are probably right.. Drinking this wouldn't be in my best interest.. Just one more snowball..."
Drago stuck his hand out once more. He started to move his hand quickly collecting all the flurries. He brought his hand in and meld the ball in his hand gently. He turned to his student and he stuck his tongue out a bit.
"See the thing to do is always.. always know what you are planning to do.. and then execute it like you haven't done anything at all... that way.. it all seems to be luck."
Drago tossed the snowball a bit to far. However when the waiter stepped on it.. he slipped. He didn't just slip. He slid. He slid far and into the other patrons. Drago put a few more dollars down for the tip and he nodded.
"I think.. we should take our leave now.. I don't think they like you very much. Because of all that snow throwing."
He only listened to her talk about when they weren't needed. He had always thought about the time when the world didn't need him. It felt like he was running on his last few miles. He gave the ninja world everything. His body. His soul. Even his eternal rest. He just wondered what else he could give to them. But he nodded at her.
"Never stay longer then you are welcomed... come on.. lets go see the sights.. if they even have sights... I like this village. I always feel at home here for some reason. I can show you my first house.. or at least home away from home."
He put his hands in his pocket and he put his hood on his head. As he started to trot to the outside skirts of the city. To the smoldering remains of his home from so long ago.

She listened to him speak and nodded her head. Only way to find out what the future would hold for her was to get there. And she would do her best to be ready when that time did come. Drago spoke of one of his past students. It was nice to hear about his past and also nice to hear about a fellow student. It was kind of strange hearing him say he was evil. She never really picture him like that. He has always been so kind to her since they have met plus he was very proper. And from what she can tell he has always done the right thing. So hearing this was some what a shock. But she was proud that he had the control to not attack his student. She couldn't believe he was evil. And she couldn't see him ever laying a hand on her, besides if they were training. Right and wrong are just words. All that matters is your actions She would listen to her teacher and never forget this. His words engraved themselves in to her memory. She never forgot anything he has told her. Especially if he implied their importance. "It's not always easy to keep an open mind. I know I have struggled with that in the past at times. But now I have those words to fall back on." She said with an encouraging smile.
"Gah, wait what?! One more snowball?" She blinked rapidly staring at him. She didn't think that was a good idea, to test the patience of the poor waiter. But Drago, didn't think the same thing. Through the air the snowball flew, but it appeared he missed his target. "Thank goodness..." She muttered before Drago's true plan presented itself. The unsuspecting waiter stepped down hard on the compact ball of snow and slipped hard crashing in to other customers. She stood up quickly out of her chair as she watched the train wreck. Dishes breaking, tea spilling all over, and people falling down. She turned her head at him staring at him before he spoke. "....Wait me?! I didn't do anything!" She said as she looked back to the waiter who was staring directly at her. He looked ever so embarrassed, but more so he had a look of rage in his eyes. She quickly glanced back to Drago who was well, already on the move exiting the tea house. She unhesitantly chased after him and exited the shop with him. She looked back over her shoulder and saw the man scowling and pointing at her. She immediately popped her hood up over her head and increased her pace so she stood beside Drago. "I don't think we should ever, EVER go back there. For some reason they don't seem to like me much..." She said sarcastically rolling her eyes at him.
"I'd love to see your house. Is it still owned by you? Or are there new owners? I've never been to Hidden Rain. The village seems nice, they have lovely tea shops. Some of their older residence seem like they are kind of rowdy though..." She said referring to his actions back at the tea house. She adjusted her hood so it covered most of her face, just her lips visible for any who tried to get a peek at the pale ninja.

The boots made it easier to trudge against the snow. He could only smile as he pressed his foot against the snow. It was almost a child like enjoyment of pressing his now warm feet against the snow. However, he only looked up and sighed slowly at her. The snowballs were a great idea. He wished that he could throw more... However he would need some more unexpected targets.
"Yeah we shouldn't go back to them... I made such a mess of things."
He said with a wrinkling smile. He then pointed to the burned down home. He only sighed as he walked to it. He often times put small markers down from where people had died. He tapped his fingers across his chin remembering his old exams. They were brutal. Some of the worse things that he could think of and they trusted him. He drugged them. Made them kill their friends. All for the sake of a title. He was the devil to make them stronger.
"I used to be like you.. a Procter of the exams. I used my house as the test.. Drugged them.. tortured them.. some of them died. Then they blew up my house. But it was necisarry then... to weed out the worse to create the best. "
He said. He sat next to his home. He still remembered it fondly. He then started to remember some of his other darker memories. The Cool. He remembered that group fondly. The base was through the woods there... he remembered them being found. He only let his hands slip in his pocket. As he stood up and he licked his lips. He didn't want to be in this grave yard. He didn't want more people to end up like this... Most of his friends dead. His students.. dead. This was all this world had bred; death. However, maybe she could change it. This caused him to have hope once again.
"But I don't think there are ninjas like me anymore.. That's the reason why I am telling you this.. You are going to be the usher of the new generation and you get to decide what they will become... Harden killers or"
He didn't finish his statement. He didn't know what to say. He always wanted a time where they could all lay down their weapons. Give back the demons.. Destroy the armors. However that time wasn't going to be in his time. Maybe she could change things. He stopped smiling so smugly. Because not even the snow could cover up his home. Not even the snow could cover up the death. It was always so visible. It was always there as a reminder.
"Enough of history huh? Come on let's go see some sights.. or if they even have sights...."
Drago said halfway cheerful. He started to walk away from his home. He should have destroyed it.. but he needed to be reminded of his mortality and fallibility.
Micha Fhei of the Village Hidden in Twilight The Nosferatu Clan
She followed him down the snow covered streets, walking behind him. She carefully placed her feet in the footprints he left behind as he pressed forward. Her feet easily slipped in to the footprints he left behind, his feet being much larger then hers. She paid little attention to where she was walking, just concentrating on the indents in the snow. That is until she nearly walked in to him. She stopped and looked up noticing Drago had stopped. She assumed he stopped in front of his old house. She looked at the structure that was there and saw a sad sight. It was burnt down; even the snow couldn't hide the darkened wood and the past it held. She wondered what happened to his old home, but she didn't have to wonder for long. He immediately began to explain what happened
Wow.... She didn't expect that explanation. She was sort of shocked to hear what he did to test the young ninja. She felt it was a bit extreme to do that, but he said he did it to weed out the weak. She could understand his thought process, but she certainly did not agree with it. She watched him walk next to his old home and sit down next to it. She sat down in the middle of the street, staring at him wondering what was going through his mind. So many memories must be rushing back at the sight of this place. She felt kind of bad for him. She was a strong believer in everyone was responsible for their own actions. But she read his body language, and he seemed like he was in a sad place and was remorseful.
"To be honest Drago... There aren't many people like you. She said in response to his not many ninjas like him left. "Not many people are able to go from bad to good. Generally it seems much easier for people to stay down the path of selfishness and evil. But I must disagree with you.... I know there are evil ninja out there. I also know that I am not enough to defeat them all by myself." She said in a low town. She pulled her knees up to her chest and hugged her legs tightly. "But there are others out there that fight for the same cause I do. That is why it is an ongoing battle, and I doubt that fight is coming to an end soon." She said as she looked up at him over her knees. She smiled at him softly, kind of an uneasy topic. She hoped she didn't dampen the mood. She just nodded her head in agreement. It was enough serious talk for right now.
She watched him get up and begin to walk away from the remains of his past. She quickly pushed herself up, slipping a bit as the snow stole the traction away from her feet. She laughed and pushed herself up and looked up at Drago with a huge grin. "Drago wait.... I need to tell you something." She said hoping he'd stop and turn around as she said this. As she got up she had to snowballs ready in her hands she through them both at him, aimed for the back of his head. If her timing was good, hopefully they'd hit his face.

Drago's path was just an unsteady one. He was young when he started off as a ninja. The older he got the more defined his path had become. He was loyal to his village. That is what they were all taught when he was a child. The village is the most important thing a ninja can have. However, the older he became his loyalty was pledged to himself... then to his friends.. then to his students.. and then to the world. He would always do what was most important to the world. No matter how he was viewed.. he knew what he was doing in most cases.
"When you are done training with me... you will fear no evil, and I am happy that you have allies. You should never go into a battle alone if you don't have too."
As they continued their walk. He couldn't help but be distracted by the house. How many lives had he ruined? How many people didn't trust each other because him? Could so many deaths be avoided? So he couldn't have been prepared for this attack. As he turned around to here his student calling him. Boom. Right in the face. Ice cold defeat. He could only fall backwards in the snow. He fell like he had just got shot by a bullet. However he only flipped out of the snow with an arm full of snowballs. He possibly cheated. He was using his speed to gather up the snowballs. However all was far in snowballs and war.
"Oh!"
While in the air he launched all the snowballs he had in his hand at quickened pace. He aimed them going for her arms and chest. This is what he needed. The one thing that had been missing in major parts of his life was this, and it was fun. He landed on his feet and he started to dart through the snow and gather up snow again. He chuckled. She brought out the fun in him. It was something that he missed. He could remember doing things like this when he was child. Before when it seemed that the world was coming to an end every day. The cold snow on his face.. it was like the sun shinning down on him. He smiled as he wiped it off his face. He still had a ton of snowballs in his hand.
"You caught me off guard! but never again my student. My first jutsu was snowball no jutsu!"
He said as he made a bright smile. This is what he needed. Something to break the sad world. To toss around the innocence. TO just actually sit back and enjoy the world. Enjoy the snow. He was training her to be a better fighter, but she was making him a better human. He had been a ninja so long that he sometimes forgot some of the better parts of having fun.
Micha Fhei of the Village Hidden in Twilight The Nosferatu Clan
Success! She didn't think her teacher would fall for it but as luck would have it, her targets hit their mark. He flew backwards, which seemed extremely over dramatic, but it certainly added to the fun. Laughter erupted out of her, extremely satisfied with herself. "Gotcha! You are fast, but no chance for Micha." She said jokingly as she put her hand out and gave him the peace sign. She was being silly, but sometimes you just had to let loose and have fun. Even if the pose made her look foolish, she enjoyed it. "I'm surprised you feel for that one..... !!" Her gloating was cut short as he flipped up and landed ever so gracefully. But before his feet even touched the ground, multiple snowballs came flying her way. "Uh oh...." If she spent less time glouting, and celebrating maybe she would have had some time to avoid the onslaught of snow heading her way.
Boom. Boom boom boom boom boom. She got pelted, her new cloak nearly turned from black to white as the soft powder engulfed it. Her head was tilted down, so her face was not visible to him. The cloak then without any warning felt limp to the ground as she managed to move out of her cloak. "Hehehe..." Her voice could be heard behind him. There the pink haired ninja stood, but there wasn't one, there were two. "Hope you are ready for this one!" She yelled excitedly as the she held her hand out to the side and the clone began piling snow as tightly as possible in to her hand. It was much like the skill rasengan, but this one was more white and fluffy then the devastating jutsu. Once the clone was finished compacting the snowball she charged towards him. She palmed the snowball in her hand like she was carrying a rasengan. Once in range she put her hand above her head as the snow expanded becoming rather large, about the size of a person but completely round. ”Snowengan!”. She exclaimed more so for dramatic purposes than anything else. She slammed it down on the spot where he was standing hoping to impact the center around him. In an explosion of snowflakes the snow puffed up in to the air and surrounded the area, sort of backfiring and completely covering herself with snow. She just blinked a few times and began laughing at the fact that she completely covered herself in snow, and may not of even gotten her target.

He laughed. He couldn't help but laugh. Her pose is what sold it all to him. Not only could she be a great ninja, but she could be a great hero. Maybe the first super hero that the ninja first saw. He chuckled a bit as he thought her and a group of ninjas. Little Super Sentai Squad. He couldn't help but cover his mouth and laugh a bit more.
"You completely deserve your own squad. You guys could so be super heroes together."
However his laugh si when he lost track of her. That would cost him today. He couldn't help but look around the snow. He saw her coat but he couldn't find her. That was a problem. He grabbed one snow ball in his hand and continued to look. However, he could hear her laugh. It was a bit eerie and he couldn't help but open his eyes wide. He turned to see something that he never thought he would see in his life. "THE SNOWENGAN! THE ULTIMATE TECHNIQUE THAT MY FOREFATHERS WARNED ME ABOUT! HOW DID YOU LEARN OF SUCH A TECHNIQUE!"
He tried to run from it. He tried. But it was all in vein. The snowengan hit him. His eyes went wide. The snow flew all over him. He just sat there in amazement. As he fell backwards into the snow. Covered from head to toe. Just in snow. As he fell backwards in the snow he began flapping his hands and legs in waving type motion.
"You have learned everything I can teach you my pupil..."
He paused for a moment.
"In the art of snowball fighting you have surpassed me. I am proud to present you the title of Snowball Anbu..."
Drago stood up to admire his snow angel. He then started to vibrate.. the snow would start to fall off of him. He then started to vibrate even faster and the snow completely melted off his body. He then shook his hands and feet a bit. He hadn't done something like that in a while. He walked to her and put his hand on her shoulder. He then gave her a big grin. It was the happiest he had been in a while. Happiest he had been outside of battle that was for sure. It was good to know that he could get happy without fighting someone...sort of.
"You know exactly what I need."
He said to her and smiled. They were partners... She was making him more human at the same time he was fine tuning her to be the perfect weapon.
Micha Fhei of the Village Hidden in Twilight The Nosferatu Clan
She was flattered by his comment about being in charge of a squad. She really hoped to have that one day. Perhaps sometime soon if she was lucky enough, she just needed some students to make it all possible. She would need to start planning soon on how to teach them correctly, and some fun exercises that would keep them interested, though she already had a few ideas set up. It was so nice to see Drago having so much fun. His over dramatic yell about the snowengan was priceless. She couldn't help but burst in to laughter about it. She just shook her head at him and smiled. It was one of the funniest moments she has been a part of in her entire life. And by far the best snowball she has ever been a part of, plus she won which was always a plus when you are in a snowball fight.
"I hope you enjoyed my super-secret special Drago. Made it just for you." She said with giggling a bit as she brushed the snow off of her shoulders and clothes. Her hair was covered and would take quite a bit of work to get all of the snow out of. She would just have to wait until they got in to a building or something before she took care of that. She bowed politely in response to her surpassing her teacher in the art of snow war. "Thank you, I felt like if I laid it all on the line, I would be able to surpass the mighty Drago." She grinned playfully as she stood back up, placing her hands on her hips. She looked him over, he was completely covered with snow laying on the ground. He began to flail, which at first glance she thought perhaps snow snuck through a space between his neck and jacket causing him to convulse do to the icy touch, but in reality he was just making a snow angel. He stood up and admired his work, which she also joined in on and looked at the angel. "The only thing it's missing now is the halo..." She said as she looked down at his masterpiece. She couldn't remember the last time she made a snow angel. She was probably just a child the last time she did that.
She laughed at his comment about her being a snowball Anbu. "Haha, I wish I had a better title then Chunin. I may even consider keeping that one." She didn't like being stuck as a chunin rank. She felt with all the training perhaps she should be a higher rank. Though truly, her rank matched her chakra level pretty spot on. She still had a long way to go, but all this training with Drago, and her tailed beast. She would one day be a powerful ninja.
She glanced over at his hand that gently rested on her shoulder. She followed his arm up until she was staring straight in to his face. He always seemed to say the nicest things to her. "That's what friends are for.... no?" She said with a smile as she gently placed her hands on top of his. She squeezed it softly in a reassuring manner and then slid her hand off of his. "So we got you some warm clothes, tea, messed with a waiter, and had a snowball fight. What is up next Drago?" She said as she stepped away from him and walked over to her coat that she left behind as a distraction. She picked it up and began to slap at it trying to get the clinging snowflakes to fall off. After a few moments of that she placed the cloak back on and pulled the hood up over her head, shadowing her face once more. She turned and faced him placing both of her hands on her hips wondering what the hidden rain village had to offer them next.

He looked up to the sky. He could here a bird's beautiful caw. He reached his handout and a small letter dropped in his hand. He cut open the lettering and read that an exam was coming up. He only sighed a bit. As he crossed his arms and handed Micha the letter.
"Would you look at that.. you are going to have a chance to prove that i am not as bad of a trainer as I thought."
Drago walked towards a frozen lake, and he put his foot on the ice. He knew this feeling all to well. The ice was thick enough. He simply took in a deep breathe of air and started to blow on the bottom of his boots at a tilted angle. He made two make shifts pair of ice skates. He stood on the lake and he only tilted his head a bit.
"How about one ice skate and then we start on our journey to get you signed up for the exam?"
Drago stood on the ice now. His blades held his weight quite nice. He started to skate backwards. He could feel his youth returning. it was always beautiful to move this fast. He started to skate backwards and forwards. Getting his bearings on the ice again. It was rough at first... at first. Eventually his legs took the ice. He could jump in the air and do a complete 360. He could spin around on a leg. He could make his figure eights. If one looked close enough the smile could be seen on his lips. He only whistled towards Micha.
"Come on the ice is fine.."
He said to her as he slid back towards her and sat on the edge of the snow. He blew on her boots the same way he did on his. The ice would make a proper blade.
Akiko yawned as she marched up the stairway. She had finished the academy and was free to do whatever. She knew she had training to do, but what would she learn first? She could learn usual water jutsu, which could give her an advantage in battle. Yet, she could also learn bloodline jutsu. Gami jutsu would be very helpful. Except against fire users, of course. Yeah, knowing both water jutsu and her bloodline jutsu would come in handy. If she was a wind ninja then she could combine the jutsu. Instead, she had a water nature and couldn't mix her jutsu. If there was a wind ninja around, she could follow him around and they could be a team.
Akiko was independent, though. Why would she ever want someone to help her? She wasn't a weak ninja. She was a new genin who was capable of a lot. Stretching her arm sideways, Akiko walked into her original house, passing her old one silently. Her "savior" deserved to know how she did. But right now, she was busy. There were jutsu to learn. Time was of the essence. "I won't fail," she vowed to herself. She jumped off the last step, glad to have made it to the top. Ahead was the Gami clan area. Lifting her scarf to cover her mouth, she speedily jumped from tree to house top to tree to house top to house top to tree. She traveled stealthily until she reached her home. She jumped from her neighbor's house top and landed in front. Breathing in relief, she walked inside, placing her shoes by the door. She cracked her knuckled and felt the safety of home. Her eyes were closed as she lazily made her way to the kitchen. As usual, the pantry was full of food that would take her a while to eat. She grabbed a quick ramen bowl. She poured water into it and threw it in the microwave.
After a minute, she opened the microwave and claimed her prize. She went into the living room and enjoyed her treat. Simple pleasures were easier to savor after a day of learning. 'An odd teacher he was, she thought to herself. He was such a calm jounin. One day she'd be a jounin too. But she would show more interest in younger people she was teacher. Would she be a good teacher? No, that wasn't the right question. Would she ever be a teacher? She could end up being evil. Her mom was in the Akatsuki. How could she ever outgrow that fact?
Akiko pushed her troubles aside as she took the empty ramen bowl to the sink. Outside, the rain pounded on her house. It was reassuring. The rain was protection from the outside world. It was a blanket of safety. She would be bothered if she ever left the Hidden Rain. If she was strong when she left, though.... She could learn how to make it rain all the time, just like Pein did.
She remembered about the jutsu she had to learn and led herself outside. She had been studying the scrolls of Kagari. The first jutsu she wanted to learn was Black Clouds. It would make oil rain down. Unpleasant, but it could slow down or distract a taijutsu user or genjutsu user, which she was hoping for. She focused chakra to her hands and formed each handseal as quickly, yet efficiently, as she could. Looking upwards, she felt oil hit her face. She ran forward ten feet to get back into the rain. She turned to where she had been and noticed the oil on the ground. If a taijutsu user was getting closer, she could definitely escape them with this jutsu. "Nice," she commented to herself. The next jutsu wasn't going to be as simple. This next one was called Haze Clones. She made clones just like herself, but she was able to go straight through them. It was perfect for secret attacks. But, this technique would be harder since she never learned how to create clones in the academy. Hell, Echo never let her learn how to walk on water. "Great." Her confidence wasn't as high now. She had a feeling something would happen tonight, so right now wouldn't be a good time to give up. Could she try something so helpless, though?

A strange dim light began to descend upon Akiko as she continued on shis usual duties. But the strange light seemed to hang back a little bit, almost hesitant. But not long before, had the strange light ventured closer, and floating into Akiko's face. The light left a warm tingle upon her skin, as the light gradually got bigger. By now, the light was well noticed, and cause the center of attention to shift to her, turning heads. The light began to dance around him, almost like it was in glee. The usual response was the run away, or even attack. But this individual found herself being paralyzed by something, unseen, but not unfelt. The light numbed the pain that the individual would normally feel when she first felt the presence. And soon, the light completely enveloped her. And in that split second of time, she was gone.

It's been a while, and Axis hasn't had much time to relax, to simply enjoy the time he had left. To simply wish for something sweet and filling to find it's way into his stomach. He'd been worked to the bone, all these missions, one after another. He didn't mind all that much, he was getting paid for most of it. The Ramen he had back in the Void was tasty, and the dumplings that came from the Twilight village was simply divine. It was his turn to relax, and relax he did.
The steam filled the air, the humidity was great and seeped into the aching joins and released the pain from them. The raven haired teen rested in the hot water of the men's hot spring. The air was a little hard to breath, but that was to be expected. It made him sweat, but with the sweat came the pain, and he almost seemed to bleed out all the pain with the sweat. He had a nasty cut on his right shoulder from a fight he had recently been in. After a while, the Rasui was having a hard time decided whether or not he wanted to get out of the warm water. But he was hungry and wanted food of some kind. So instead, he simply sighed, and stayed a bit longer. It wasn't everyday he got to have a nice time by himself.
He began to wonder if he should get himself a team, a squad of three, plus a sensei. If he did, where would he find them? And just who would their sensei be? And what if he should find himself a girl? But then again, what if a guy became interested in him? The thought almost made him laugh. He had way too much time of his hands to be thinking about things like that. But then again, what if? Pushing the thought aside, the teen got out of the water, and headed in to get dressed.
Once he was fully clothed, dressed in his usual attire((See chibi above for visual)), he began to wonder throughout the village. Now, he wasn't on an official mission, but he was seeking out a team of his own. He had hoped that maybe somewhere, he would find someone worthy of being his team mate, or maybe someone would find him worthy to be his teammate, which ever came first. He was a fairly laid back dude, and had a level head on his shoulders. Very welcoming, and friendly beyond almost all beliefs.
As he wondered, he can to a ramen bar ((I really want ramen)), and took a seat at the stool. Once he did, the old man behind the counter asked what he wanted. Axis had just waved his hand and ordered the special, whatever that was. The man than nodded and walked off. The aroma in the air made his mouth water, and he couldn't wait to taste the food. What was going on with him? He was relaxing. The only thing missing was someone to share the ramen with. He didn't mind being alone, but someone to talk to every once in a while was a nice thing too. Oh well, ramen is still awesome!

Shikarama Nara, The Dedicated Genius
Shikarama would sigh as he approached the hidden rain village by boat. The air was cool and the air was filled with moisture and the sound of rain. And of course from above, rain sprayed down upon the city below. He stepped out from the boat, his cloak being soaked by the continuous tears of the sky. The sky itself was enveloped in grey and black from clouds that were almost absolute. They formed a complete ceiling over the village, not allowing an inch of sun to be seen. Beyond this, they left the village appearing dreary and almost sad. Shikarama would step from the docks towards the village gates, giving his passport, before entering. Rain-coats were offered for free. Shikarama decided he might as well take one just in case. He placed it over his cloak and went deeper into the village. He would take this time to do some exploring.

"Now what?" Rune asked himself aloud. The academy was over and he'd gotten his headband. He was a little disappointed that he didn't feel different at all, even though as he reentered the village he was a new genin. Rune would just have to go visit his parents and tell them. Afterwards he was free to learn any jutsu the village coveted. 'Wait...? Did I even promise my mom I'd come back? No, I don't think I really did. I said I wouldn't leave the village, but...' Rune recollected the morning before the academy and remembered that he had said not a word about visiting again. He did say he wouldn't leave the village until he learned jutsu here; agreeing to it was the only way his mom would let him leave. Anything to keep him "home" longer.
This revelation made him smile. He was free! After learning a handful of Hidden Rain jutsu he was free to go to any village. Which one would he visit first? Who cares! He could just jump on one of the boats and go where one took him. In the flurry of thoughts attacking Rune, he failed to realize an outsider was ahead of him, walking into the village instead of around like Rune was. Rune noticed the tree the man just passed. Since the man was walking to the West of where Rune was standing, he just slowly moved behind the man until he could get to the tree. Once at the tree, he could climb up and see if the man looked familiar. What if he was a missing-nin? Rune hadn't noticed a lot of outsiders lately. He could be planning an attack! A closer look would surely disperse any crazy ideas.

OOC: {Felt like Rune would be suspicious since he doesn't see many visitors unaccompanied by family they're visiting, or whatever. Feel free to scare him with your creepy clan-shadows or something you have up your sleeve.
