[Current Form Of Appearance] Yokouchi Yushiro, after leaving the Hidden Moon Village and discovering nothing at all, he traveled towards clouds that were over the horizon and so dark it attracted him. The rain comes down upon Yokouchi's hood of his father's anbu leather gear and with his mask he looks up as the mask softly embraces his face thinking"Yes this rain, its pain of the village and all that it has dealt with. Its like looking at my own heart and seeing my own pain." Yokouchi knowledges that and therefore he feels more bitter about outsiders here in this place. Looking at the Hidden Rain reminds him of what happened back when he was younger when his family was slaughtered and the killer got away. Yoko leans up against the wall letting the hood embrace his figure leaving him a mystery to anyone that lays a eye on him. The mask is the shadow of his face as the outfit entire is his father's shadow covering his identity from anyone. The sockets of the mask holds the abyss like darkness that prevents anyone from seeing his eyes. Yokouchi hopes whenever a enemy looks into his mask, they see death coming in the from of shadows underneath the brutal rage that buries and burns in Yokouchi's heart. Though Yoko using his body and training physically, he leaps up to the highest tower where old shinobi have hidden themselves plotting, a perfect hang out spot for Yokouchi. Yokouchi finds a spot to sit letting his legs hang as he watches below seeing all the shinobi down below unaware of his presence though he wasn't even trying to be sneaky. Yokouchi just prefers to be by himself and mysterious as well as shady after all. 289 words + 1,027 words from last post in the Hidden Moon Village=1,316 words

Akane had noticed the leather clad man from a distance when she arrived in her home land. The shadiness in his actions, the mask, the leather clothing, it all added up to the description she had received from Academy. She had not been home long when she saw him, and she followed him. Now what was he doing here? So according to the rumor no one knew what his true intentions. He leaped up on the tallest tower in the town. That was no good, she changed her path circling around the building. She approached from behind, his face did not matter as it was covered anyway. "Oh ho ho.. Look what I found.. The mysterious shady figure. The specter of Hidden Moon." she spoke in a theatrical tone as if enjoying the play on words. "Do you know how much gossip you have generated? How far rumors of you have traveled?" her tone held a certain joy to it, as if it were some kind of game.
[Current Form Of Appearance] Yokouchi is enjoying his relaxation which he listens to the rain outside, the rain only helps him think and plan as he wondered what path should he take. The benefits must come forth, which involves deals with people to get what he wants out of it. Though a voice is heard behind him which he turns to the women in a mysterious fashion listening how he is called the specter of Hidden Moon and asked about how much gossip he had created. Yoko goes to reply to the women as he crosses his arms"It doesn't matter how much chatter you people create, to me rumors are a simple means to a pathetic end. I hate chatter, it just shows how much a big mouth one has, teeth i have to break in after all." Yoko clearly doesn't care about the rumors but yet this women, how did she get behind him so well? He would of noticed her, clearly she is talented. Yokouchi sees her long brown hair along with red filled eyes, the color of blood, and such a beautiful figure. However, that doesn't change his guard though he never changed his guard after his family died so long ago. Yokouchi though looks to the rain outside, its raining heavier and heavier like its responding to Yokouchi's harsh statement towards outsiders. Yokouchi walks up to the edge, the entrance of the tower as he lifts his hand out feeling the rain and as he catches water, he clutches his fist hard. The clutch wasn't a normal one, it was something that would show that there is pain within him but in his eyes only are filled with hatred in this world. Yokouchi without looking at Akane"Tell me, what is your deal out of following this"rumor" about me? Are you in for something which i would call benefits?" Yokouchi said it in a very sarcastic way, but yet Yoko does appear like the man to be a dealer who looks for benefits and if a deal isn't high enough in his favor, he drops the bucket and curtain on the deal. Yokouchi though after question presented he turns with his arms crossed looking Akane dead in the eye from his mask even if she can't see his eyes, he is directly looking in her eyes. His voice is very deep and along with that his stance is the type of stance that a man filled with hatred and pain would take. Yokouchi wonders if this women can see right through him, most can't due to that they are busy with their neutral standings or just simply wish to do good and don't wish to look past his figure about the idea he is a evil man with evil plans for the future but its in the form of deals. 469 words + 1,316 words=1,785 words

Akane sighed a little after the stranger's first line. It was about how much he didn't care for chatter, and something about breaking teeth. It was such a masculine response, but too masculine. Only a fool ignored an information network. Of course some things were only useless chatter as he so claimed, but a clever person could pick out what was useful. It was then that he would turn in her direction, and although she could not see it was a good guess that he looked her over. She would choose not to reply to the first statement, as her feelings to it were negative but fully noted. When he asked what deal she made about her following the rumor, and what deal she had cut the young woman laugh. "So angry~" she would tease in her usual sticky sweet tone. "For some who is so uninterested in chatter you ask a lot of questions." she would tease him. It was fine she would humor the stranger..for now. "Follow the rumor? Goodness no, it wasn't interesting enough. Benefits? Is there a form of benefits I should be aware of?" the sweet words danced off her tongue. Finally there was something interesting coming out of this. She had a gut feeling that she had placed herself in a dangerous situation, but it only made her excited.
[Current Form Of Appearance] Yokouchi smirks a bit behind his mask as he leaned against a wall and listened to her response about his questions even going as far as shooting his words right back him. Yoko for the first time, felt quite impressed by someone like this women before him. A beautiful women shooting his words right back at him without even a hesitation and laughed about his questions as well. She is fearless in his eyes, his first statement wasn't responded to but regardless of that, she still shot words anyhow. Teasing him and playing around with him even staked her down into a more dangerous position specially with Yokouchi himself. Yokouchi walks a bit closer with eye brows behind his mask raised"Really? you are one gutsy women, nobody has ever talked back and shot words like that."Yokouchi laughs a bit but actually it holds no sarcasm at all but instead pure bliss of joy. "You are the second person to really grab my interest so you have officially earned it from me." Yokouchi just to return the teasing, he gets close to Akane pulls her close to him leaning down close to her ear and whispers"My name is Yokouchi Yushiro." Yokouchi rubs her waist a bit more and then lets go taking a few steps back smiling for the first time behind his mask. Perhaps a later time, way later though its no guarantee but he will show his true appearance to someone who fully has really earned to see his true self. It could be Akane who earns that or someone else but its not limited, its only limited if someone can't impress him, interest him or even prove worth to him.

Sanada [Uchiha], Yuuta
It had not been much of a long day, as Yuuta managed to keep himself busy while he takes a walk and learn his way around the crime filled village. 'This could be fun...' He would think as he tosses the an unconscious man that tried to mug him moments ago. Electricity crackles over his body before dispersing harmlessly, thankfully, into the air. The mysterious male's chakra nature proving to be very useful as the rain made everything, and everyone slick with fallen water. "I could use a snack..." Yuuta would say aloud, to himself, as he goes over the would be mugger's stuff taking all the money the three of them had on them. "Chump Change...broke asses." He would kick the 'leader' of the group in the guts before stepping over her and walking off. After a few moments, the twenty something Uchiha was walking from a small shop with a stick in his mouth, only two more grilled, and glazed takiyako balls remained on it. His hands in his pocket as he walks through the streets once more, those crimson eyes glancing around for something interesting to do. That is when he found them, a male dressed as conspicuously as possible; and a sexy female that seemed to be talking to him. A grin would cross his face, while he moves in close enough to listen in to the conversation about a rumor of a 'Moon Shadow'. It seemed some oddly dressed male was spotted within Hidden Moon awhile ago while acting rather odd. It may even be this strangely dressed male, as he seemed to fit the bill on appearance alone. As the two introduced themselves, Yuuta got to over hear both of the names before stepping around a corner, acting as if he was out on a casual stroll with a simple snack in hand. His crimson eyes dancing over the Gami girl first, before glancing at the oddly dressed male. 'Such a weird place to strike up a conversation, but this girl is cute enough to dig in for fun.' He would think as comes to a stop before the two. "Sanada, Yuuta. I could not help but hear your names from around the corner. If you don't mind...lets move into a building, and out of the rain. I know a good barbeque place." The male would wink at Akane, "My treat, Dear." His gaze was harsher on the male, as if just trying to show off his eye, since the rest of his face was covered but a red hood drapes over his form. "What do you say...Moon Shadow?" Assuming the two of them would follow, Yuuta began to make his way towards the shop he had mentioned.

Akane did indeed notice the change in the stranger's tone of voice. "Oh look at you. Are you warming up already?" she would tease him at first. A little bit of a scoff leaves her mouth as the specter calls her gutsy. "A woman doesn't get very far being meek." she would answer is a very matter of fact tone. His change of tone did remind her of the acquaintance from Academy speaking about how he may have his own story and reasons for the way he acts. It was no as if she initially doubted it, anything was possible. Having seen that it may in fact be true with her own eyes, was somewhat shocking. It was then that she was pulled close to him, and she would not resist it. The closeness was apparently to whisper his name in her ear. A soft smile formed on her face, shadows did not give their names to people. After he let her go she would take only a step back, and allow her finger tip to dance across his chest. "Shall I call you by a nick name then, or is specter acceptable?" Her attention was fully on him until another voice rang through. "You know they have a term for this right?" she would reply to the man who interrupted her flirtation. "...and I would be upset if there wasn't a meal involved." she would then mutter under her breath. "Did you hear that he offered to buy us dinner and drinks? We can't refuse him can we?" she would say before moving along side the stranger. She knew she added the free drinks in, but she couldn't resist the shot.

[Current Form Of Appearance] Yokouchi heard Akane respond to him saying about him warming up so quickly as they conversed with each other. Yokouchi loved the fact that Akane went as far as saying that women don't get very far being meek in their life time. Yokouchi noticed how Akane loved the tease he had done so in return from her previous teasing and yet has another tease to return as well. Before Yoko could answer Akane's question about either suggested nickname or accepting specter, they had a uninvited guest that waltz on in without consideration of privacy for the two. Yoko did hear the mutter that Akane said, it was quite correct as she had asked the man about what term is given for interrupting her flirtation with Yoko."Yes, we can't refuse such a thing." Yokouchi before they left, the man before him gazed him down a bit but so much to show something, the Sharingan. Yokouchi knows only the Uchiha Clan would possess the Sharingan, and for that he respected the man however it was rude to interrupt the moment he was having with Akane, to him it was precious. Though its only first meeting, there is a long way to go before anything will really begin. Yokouchi before he follows, he scuffs his feet against the ground and begins to walk noticing the nickname that the man has given him which is Moon Shadow. He didn't say a word about it but simply nodded to the nickname. Before he speaks with this man in the same manner like he does to Akane, he needs to see what this man is about and what his possible motives are. Yokouchi is going to have to figure out when he can answer Akane's questions without interruption but dinner won't hurt to do so anyhow. Yokouchi just lingers behind like the shadows of the moon after all.
A slight smirk would cross his covered face as they both seem to react to his abrupt entrance into the conversation. Even better was the sassy teasing he received for the action from the dark haired girl. "I see, could you blame me for jumping the gun to introduce myself to such a lovely lady?" Yuuta played along with the teasing as he allowed her to add in drinks to his meal offer. After all she was just loud enough for him to overhear, and he had no intent to try and correct the offer since he made a bit of a windfall from the attempted muggers. He would glance over his shoulder as Akane caught up to him. "So pretty one, What should I call you." His crimson eyes danced along her form once again taking in her long legs and curvy body. A hand sneaking to the small of her back and pulling her lightly into him as they walked letting Moon Shadow follow behind the both silently as he was. The offer for the free meal was extended to the female, but he guessed he would burst the bubble to him when the bill came around. His gloved fingers gently danced along the girl's spine at her lower back as the pair walked. "And you... Moon Shadow... what is the story behind the get up? Trying to be stick out like a sore thumb? Cause it is working...not that I blend in much in this get up." His voice had a bit of sass and playfulness, though the question does seem rather pointed as well. Still taking Yuuta brings the small group into a nice little restaurant the smell of cooking meat filling the air as others sit at tables with small charcoal grills built into them. Different sauces and marinades are arranged on a rack at the end of the table for each person to customize their meat to their own taste. The Uchiha male would hold up three fingers to the hostess without muttering a word, and she would nod and lead the three of them to a booth in near the back. It was away from the other customers but the smell of cooking meat still filled the air. He would not sit yet, but he did work on lighting the coals under the grill. "This is a pretty good place. I make it here maybe twice a week." He would say before motioning the Gami girl to take a seat.

Akane let out a scoff after Yuuta asked if he could be blamed for jumping the gun on interrupting the pair. "I'm sure you know the answer to that." It was then that he would ask what her name was. "I thought you said you over heard our names?" she would sass him further. Of course when the statement came out of his mouth earlier she knew it was false as she had not given her name out during the exchange with the specter. "Gami, Akane" A touch danced around the small of her back, and proceeded to pull her in closer to him. She was certain it was the man who interrupted the pair, as he was closest at the time. As if to confirm her guess she looked over her shoulder to see who it was. With the confirmation, It was clear that this man was ridiculously bold. It was almost too much but she did admire that trait. Quickening her pace she would escape the closeness with Yuuta. The conversation would take a turn about the specter's clothing choice. "I would actually like to know that as well." she would comment. As they approached the restaurant, she could smell the aroma of grilled food in the air. "I love this place! My parents used to take me here all the time when I was younger." she would nearly cheer showing a child like innocence. It was a hole in the wall gem that the locals often did not want to give up. The place was normally loud and crowded, but luckily they were seated in the back where it was quieter. Although she could still clearly hear the conversations of tables nearby. "We should get a bottle of Soju." she would comment quickly. Yuuta would light the coals under the grill, perhaps he had intentions to man the grill. It was a shame, as it was something she enjoyed doing. There was a certain art to these types of things. Her eyes would glance back to the specter, he had remained quite during this exchange. It was not surprising by any means, but she was wondering what he was thinking.
[Current Form Of Appearance] Yokouchi listens further about the whole thing as well as the loving attitude that Akane gives. To Yokouchi, its a pleasant attitude as it shows she has good backbone to challenge and fire shots off without question or hesitation. Though its apparant the guy lied about knowing their names which is why he is being called Moon Shadow due to the unknowing which is perfect at this point. Yokouchi thought Akane's name is very beautiful after all which he would smile once more, though that smile fades when Yuuta had the nerve to grab Akane. Akane allowed Yokouchi earlier to do the same thing and didn't resist him but with quick movements, Akane avoided Yuuta's embrace. Yokouchi sighs a bit and says to Yuuta"Sorry the only person that has earned that answer to the question from me is Akane. If you want that answer, you must earn it first. Having you heard deal is a deal, well i would be surprised if you don't. The deal is you want an answer to your question; i will give you the answer if you earn it from me. Dinner won't buy that answer for you, so interest me, impress me or show me your worth and i will consider it." Yokouchi may respect Yuuta since he is from the Uchiha Clan but that doesn't buy Yuuta any answers at all. Yuuta must achieve one of those conditions in order to get any answers from him at all. Besides, he hasn't earned Yokouchi's name yet and he would not give names to people who didn't earn it. Yokouchi though continues to follow close behind as they go into a restaurant that smells very good which Yokouchi doesn't say anything else as he gather coals and hands it to Yuuta. That is the least thing he will do but he won't do any further. Yokouchi then sits back in the booth with his legs crossed and arms crossed as well as he stares out into the gathering of people. Yet he wonders about Akane and happy that she got away from Yuuta not letting herself be smothered by someone who stalked him and her and lied about names after all. "Really huh? your parents brought you here when you were younger? interesting, you are very lucky i will say." Yokouchi comments about Akane's excited tone about the food place and thinks about how he would hide the history about his family. Akane hasn't earned that much yet because he would prefer to reveal his true clothing when that time comes but its a long way from now. It can be shortened depending on how much time they may have a chance at with specially when alone together. This kind of thing never really happened for Yokouchi so its the first time he is going out to eat specially with two people he just met, one is a stranger and one is a interesting and beautiful lady that he had a wonderful moment with.

Sanada [Uchiha], Yuuta
A smirk once more forms on his face as the cute Gam girl sassed him about having heard their names before. "You caught me, Sweetie. I did not get a chance to hear yours. Moon Shadow back there is Yoko-something...that isn't really that important though." She would continue her sassy tone, but she does introduce herself, "Akane...such a lovely name. Akane-chan." His voice was poised with a sweetness as he added the honorific to her name while the group continued to walk towards the barbeque shop. It was then that the Gami spoke of her parents taking her, often, to this nice little place. "Awesome. You get to man the grill then, Sweetie. I trust you to grill up some tasty meat." Yuuta would speak with a matched excitement to that of the cute girl. As both him and Akane asked about his get up, Moon Shadow would simply ramble on about how one of the ones asking had earned that answer, but not Yuuta. He would also state that a dinner wasn't going to get him the answer either. A slight laugh left the man, though his mouth remained hidden still, "You are expecting a free meal? I really only extended that offer to Akane-chan her, but it is cute that you though you were included." He would motion Yoko to sit as he takes a place along side Akane, "A soju? I did not think of that...we should totally get a bottle to go with the meal." He leaned back in the booth and took in the smell of cooking meats, as his left hand loosens and withdraws the wrapping around his mouth. "Biggest question is...what meat do we go for first? Beef short ribs, pork, or maybe even form fresh cut chicken? Then comes the issue with the sauces." His sharingan eyes looks down to Akane with a big, playful smile, "Please make sure to take good care of us, Akane-chan."

Akane laughed as she was requested to man the grill. "It's been awhile, but no one forgets such a thing." It was not long after that the specter mentioned that she was lucky to be taken to such a place. "I guess I was." she would reply sweetly. Her parents were no longer in the world. The truth was they went to this place because although it was known for being delicious, it was also within her family's budget. They would visit this place around once a week, on Tuesday nights when it often held special deals. It was then that the specter would ramble on about not answering the questions concerning his attire. "There's no need to be rude, just state that you're uncomfortable speaking about such matters." she would reply. It was not in a scolding tone, but within indifference. When Yuuta denied the specter his free meal, Akane laughed a little. "When you didn't deny it, I thought I might have slipped it by you. What can I say, I tried." she would reply playfully. Considering what he was up to, he should probably buy the guy a free meal. She would find herself sitting next to Yuuta. This guy was playing this game well, and she was taking note of it. As they debated about what to eat, Akane was quick to throw in her opinion. "Doesn't pork taste best grilled though?" she would reply. The truth was that her family had often order cheaper cuts of meat, and innards as well. She wanted something that she knew all the tips and tricks to, she was around two people she just met after.

[Current Form Of Appearance] Yokouchi sighs in relief as he thought about what Akane said and she is very correct, there is no reason to be rude anyhow. Though Yokouchi did note that Akane stated she hadn't grilled in such a long time, which he looks at Yuuta a bit. Perhaps he was being a bit too rude anyhow, its just that ever since the death of his parents, he had been always working on keeping people arms length away from him. Akane and the other male known as Velius were ones that got underneath his skin. Akane got through in a soft way but Velius got through the hard way due to the idiocy of not controlling his blood lust specially at the Academy of all places. Yokouchi then turns to Yuuta"I can't speak on such matters about my attire, there is reasons i have, reasons i can't share. Please do understand that as its something to not trend into." Yokouchi takes a breath and breathes out in a very slow matter calming himself down. After all, Yuuta and himself are about to have dinner after all."Yuuta, my name is Yokouchi Yushiro, remember that." Yokouchi put it in a calm but stern voice tone. Yokouchi laughs a bit at Akane's comment about the free meal denial"Akane don't worry about me alright, If he doesn't want to give me a free meal, its alright, no point of pushing it." Yokouchi didn't really care about the meal at this point, for him it was just learning Yuuta's game after all. He was teasing around and such just like Akane did to him some hours ago really. Yokouchi thought about the uncomfortable topic of his attire, the attire really belongs to his deceased father who was a Anbu Captain in the Hidden Whirlpool Village. Yoko's father had mastered many of the clan's techniques and was very superb at it. Yoko as a little kid watched his father train, it was one of his favorite past times and here he is, grown and a shinobi wearing his father's Anbu gear. Yokouchi thought about not telling Akane the story behind his attire, it leads to memories that just makes Yokouchi upset due to that he blames himself for not able to save his family. The attire symbolized his father's successes as a shinobi, something that Yokouchi himself wants to live up to. Yokouchi is mainly using his father's gear to hide his identity against the outside world that strays upon his village every day. Staying unknown in identity can help a shinobi prevent someone tracing him back to his homeland and mansion that sits in the Hidden Whirlpool Village. Yokouchi though wonders about what Akane's true thoughts are, there is a lot of mystery to her though he can't say he doesn't have mystery either. To him hiding everything or anything about his village will prevent anyone from disturbing his family's graves that are behind the mansion. Yokouchi has had people stumble by his family's graves and some of them stared at those graves in a very pitiful way. Yokouchi many times had to tell people angrily to leave his family's graves alone as to him, they are sacred graves. Losing everyone that he ever had cared for was harsh and heart breaking too. Without realizing it, his hands were on his knees of his attire gripping hard due to the painful memories that travel through his mind. They were gripping so hard he could feel like his knuckles could rip. Yokouchi lets go very quickly realizing he was gripping his knees the entire time."Excuse me." Yokouchi leaves the area going towards the restroom which he goes through and stares at the mirror right about the sink. Yokouchi breathes in and out thinking about how much he cared for his family and how much they meant to him. They were the world to him and he couldn't protect them something he regrets every day. Yokouchi even looks towards the door way to be sure the door was shut as he didn't want anyone looking at him, being seen like this. It was pitiful and sad because his motto is that if you stop moving, you carry weakness. Yokouchi knew he couldn't lose his cool due to that his family's deaths only make him bitter and bitter. It was like a needle in the hay stack within his heart, a needle he tries to remove but never finds it as it keeps scrambling away from him. Yokouchi returns with more of a calm posture as he needed time to think to himself as to him, the demons of his past strengthens him which helps him come up with his own plans for the shinobi world.
It was not long after being scolded by Akane for being an a**, Yoko seems to mourn on his actions before admitting to not being able to willingly talk to open about the subject though he does give his name to the Uchiha male. "See...Yoko-something. I told you I over heard a name." Yuuta would tease with a happy smirk on his face now having this Specter of the Moon's name as well, though he honestly did not care either way on what name he had... Yuuta was most likely just going to still call him Moon Shadow. The Uchiha would laugh a bit more as the female Gami would ask if she could blame her for trying to score a free meal for the two of them. "I guess I can not...I may be talked into still paying for you, Moon Shadow." His attention would be drawn towards Akane once more as she asks if pork was spose to taste better grilled. "Is it?" Yuuta would ask softly as he places his finger to his chin in thought, "Then lets start with some of that, Akane-chan." His gaze shifted to Yoko once more as he seems to sit there lost in thought for a long moment, perhaps for the whole conversation on what meats they should grill even. Lightly the cloaked male across from him would say Excuse Me before getting up and walking off. "Mhmm… that was odd. Anyway..." Yuuta straightened his posture and unwrapped the red scarf and hood from his shoulders letting it dropped across the back of the booth seat.
