I Am Lost!!

Aray aimlessly walked around his new environment. Diligently looking around taking in information of his surroundings, he multi-tasked minor things while trying to find a clue that might lead him to the Konoha Gates, (the minor things of course were familiarizing his surroundings so that he won't walk in circles). While absorbing new information, he is evaluating new information to determine if any clues could lead to the "promised lands". As though in a trance, Aray mindlessly wanders about in search of the gates into paradise.

As Aray trekked through the perilous and almost endless stretch of forest, he took the time to think back on his past actions as an Iwa affiliate. Thinking back made him furious, so furious, he ripped off his headband from his head and threw it with all the strength he could muster. Upon wandering aimlessly around the emerald colored forest he paused for a second to take a grasp on how serious his actions were. He abandoned the village of Iwa and disowned his headband tying him to Tsuchi no Kuni (Earth Country) to travel into unknown lands and plunging into unknown dangers. Aside from those decisions, by far the worse was wandering into a seemingly infinite forest and being stripped of any sense of direction.

Trying to remain calm Aray set aside time for himself to sit down and calmly asses the situation. In an almost meditative state he sat down and thought of the many possible ways of receiving help in some form or another. He knew the worst time to be active is at night so the best thing to do is to move around as much as possible during the day. No assistance would be available near night time as well, the best possible way he could seek help from another person is to hopefully bump into someone who is either from Konoha or knows their way around the forest enough to lead him onto a trail or path. As he rose, he formulated a plan, which was to hopefully find someone else who is in the forest.

Aray knew something wasn't right, he felt as though his plan relied heavily on a margin that was too thin. The possibility of him finding another person wandering the forest is about 1/400 and every time he moves (he believes) the number multiplies by each step taken. "The more ground I cover, the more my chances increase" he habitually repeated to himself. The sound of his voice bounced back off the trees as though the trees themselves were mocking him and his silly ideas. Aray noticed something in the distance as he proceeded forward, trekking deeper into the forest, a shadowy figure approx. 600 meters away in the distance, the figure remained unidentifiable but became slightly more visible as he cautiously proceeded towards the figure.
