Within seconds of me leaving I would once again appear, however, unlike the last, this time I stuck to the shadows. Doing such allowed me to hide completely among the darkness, watching and listening to the two as they conversed. I hadn't left just to allow the two to talk, no - I had to retrieve all of my discarded things of course, but it was a good thing that I had. Despite his tough facade, Kaeor definitely had a hidden agenda by doing everything that he did; though I had missed the actual question itself, he didn't seem like the kind of person to ask a stranger such a question unless he really needed to.

”I’m assuming you must know someone who has it. Or you have it yourself.”

So thats what this was about? He seemed healthy enough as he had attacked me without hindrance, so I assumed - even though I found it impossible to believe he cared for anyone with his ways of going about things - that it was someone near and dear to him. Blanche seemed to understand that too, for her demeanor and tone of voice changed almost completely; surely, if she thought he was the one with whatever disease they were talking about, that wouldn't have happened - especially considering all that he had done only minutes ago.

"'It won't come cheap' you say?" I'd pull myself from out of the shadows, bounding towards them two casually. Without saying another word, I took a seat ontop of an adjacent rock, my digits twirling what seemed to be a unique variation of a kunai. "I have a proposition for you, Kaeor. If you agree, well--" Even though I spoke to Kaeor, I remained looking at Blanche with much curiosity. "I can assure you money will never again be a problem for you and of course your loved one." It was but a simple guess among other things, but it seemed to make the most sense.

"I could use you and your abilities."

ooc; shitty post galore

So everything that I studied was reasonable and right. There wasn't anyway a single medic or a jutsu could cleanse Areru of her taint. Instead with the collection of an enormous sum of ryo, the task at hand was as simple as a lengthy surgery. My footing never shifted from my stance and Blanche had my undivided attention. The subject she lectured on was rather much more important to me than anything else currently. But with the information she gave me all the options that I fantasied instantly disappeared. Unfortunately, the cards just weren't currently in my favor and I found everything going downhill tremendously quick.

For a moment due to the interest she took, I almost did follow her commands. There was a a part of me that wanted to confide everything in her. But her earlier actions forced me to reconsider my own. She didn't feel like someone that genuinely cared so there would be no purpose in giving her the satisfaction of knowing my private life. After all, if I recalled correctly her entry and language was crude. I would totally believe her if she said she was raised by a group of barbarians.

"Don't worry about it." I exclaimed, letting her down in what I believed to be a easier way instead of no. After her next comment I began to leave until Soratsu magically reappeared. His next words had been chosen carefully as to weave my heart into some troubled matter from what I could grasp. Nonetheless, he was successful in grasping my interest.

"What are you proposing and how would you out of all people be able to garner such?" I humbly questioned. I was slightly intrigued about what this vagabond had to see. Hopefully, it would make sense.

"'It won't come cheap' you say?" I'd pull myself from out of the shadows, bounding towards them two casually.

From the shadows Soratsu seemed to make his entrance once more, sorely telling the both of us that he had been listening to the conversation we had been having. Of course, I couldn’t exactly tell how long he had been listening in but the most important thing was that he probably caught on as to why Kaeor was questioning about the treatment- His own response to the things I had said, and the fact that he still continued to ignore my questions further suggested the idea that he was too proud to tell me exactly who had been diagnosed with it, which was understandable enough if he wanted to protect them or something like that- So it was either a family member, or a lover. Of course, myself had felt first hand how agonizing it was to lose people close to you, and to be honest, I’d be surprised if no-one else did. However, from what I figured, whoever he cared enough about to ask meabout such an illness must be in quite a bad shape. But- A small part of me disturbingly yearned for others to feel the pain of having someone close dying, and, I don’t really know why.

My eyes turning back towards Soratsu, they having in the past been set on Kaeor as he fell in silence once more as the brown haired shinobi began to speak of some kind of offer. Surely enough it sounded shady, and if I was Soratsu I wouldn’t have bothered even helping the ass, he having sliced his throat open with the tip of a kunai- It was strange really how the both of them were now acting as if nothing had happened between them, but I figured it was just down to being boys- Girls usually kept grudges and the feeling of hate directed at people for quite a long time, and I was proudly part of that group. Sitting on top of a rock as if he was a fucking top guy he’d spin quite a distinctive kunai around his finger- I was sure I had read of it somewhere before, or at least seen some kind of sketch regarding it, but it was lost in my mind somewhere, memories of such items having been during and before a war, a timeframe which I couldn’t recall to the best of my ability.

Dismissing this but keeping it in mind that he had a kunai spinning around his index finger, I’d then turn my attention back towards his face as he’d seem to be looking at me, but speaking to Kaeor, something that pissed me off quite a bit. It was one of those little thing that people did that I just couldn’t stand, but to be honest a lot of the things that humans did these days annoyed me, so this one factor was alongside many others which I deemed as unnecessary for them to do. ”..And how will you make this money you speak of?” To say the very least, I was interested to see how he would take this offer, and in silence, I’d simply stand by the both of them and listen to them speak. How lovely it was being annoyed. Should they keep this up; There was no worth of me even being here any more. An uninterested look on my face, my position would move from side to side as I contemplated leaving these two gayboys so I could continue with my journey.

I hadn't forgotten what Kaeor had just done to me, the memories of the pain he inflicted on my body still running rampant within my mind. It wasn't like I wasn't still angry at him for doing so, however, the fact that he actually had the balls to do so, coalesced with his sheer ability to actually bring such to fruition, intrigued me the most. He was gifted, far too gifted at that for me to not find some use of his abilities, even if he had just etried to kill me. At his words my eyes hovered onto him, my face keeping it's emotionless facade despite the perfect opportunity to flaunt my ego.

"I'm on a journey to find answers, but to do that I need power and a force - thats where you come in. However, before all that can even be accomplished, I need funds. We both want the same thing." The idea of forming an organization or even a team of sorts hadn't really been pondered all that much since I had left Sunagakure, but this chance of actually bringing it to fruition was too good to pass up. Again, despite my words not being done, I looked and stared at Blanche. "Don't associate me with the rest of this weak shinobi system. Like blondy here, I'm a legend in my own right."

With a simple flick of my wrist I threw my kunai, the sharp tip of it landing to the side of Blanche. It was a simple toss, nothing too strong to induce a fight. "Also, I just happen to be--" Faster than a blink of an eye I vanished, my innert form appearing behind and to the side of Blanche. My Sharingan activated with the large chakra consumption, my ability to control Hiraishin still not where I wanted it to be.

"One of the most gifted, as well."

[Kaeor]

There wasn't enough time for me to question what exactly he was getting at through his speech. He had already ensnared my attention with such talk about money so I had no reason to not hear him out. I too had taken notice of the strange kunai that he dangled effortlessly around his finger. It wasn't strange enough for me to question it so I had previously ignored it and only considered it customized to his personal preference. Blanche's loud mouth resounded the very question that remained active in my head for the male. Did he expect to conjure such an amount out of his ass?

The fact that he had established me as some sort of pawn when referring to me as force ticked me off. Yet though his snakey tongue, I understood at what he was getting at. When I made the assumption that he was a vagabond I was undoubtedly right. I hadn't met anyone as reckless as him before outside of Kumogakure's prison. But even then they didn't hold the power that he had achieved. If these two were legends then all I hungered to be was a legend killer. Still I could only momentarily sense the activation of his chakra as it linked to the weird kunai that dangled in the air.

Right after that it was almost as if he performed some instant transmission. Obviously he had distorted the rules of space and time to his own cheeky will. It was a marvelous feat in itself but not too awe inspiring for me. Rather it was distasteful how he depended on a jutsu to reach from point A to point B instead of sheer speed such as myself. I didn't complain about it openly though, for the uses of the jutsu were probably more extreme than I predicted and the technique itself archaic.

"I'm guessing you're going to want me to kill and all of that shit." I replied coldly. I had never outright murdered a innocent person. But now in the palms of my hand I weighed the lives of two different things. Either Areru would become deceased or she would live at the death of others. The choice was rather obvious. I just hoped that in the end I would be forgiven for everything I did. And whether Areru condoned my actions or not, I would ensure that she received the help she needed before spilling the beans.

"You're not half bad shinobi. I'm in."

Faster than a blink of an eye I vanished, my inert form appearing behind and to the side of Blanche.

However talented this ass seemed to be, I didn’t care that much, even when he threw the outlandish kunai near my feet. And soon- As the clues pieced together; The Kunai and now the reappearance of him, his breath gently heating the back of my shoulders, I’d but turn my head to look at him, my gaze still unimpressed. I was, truly somewhat impressed by the feat of ninjutsu that he had just shown- It was none other than Hiraishin, for sure, a technique which allowed instantaneous movement much stronger than that of Shunshin- The sheer rarity of it was something to commend him of having, and every fibre in my being craved to have such power for my own to have, and yet- I didn’t care. I didn’t give one flying fuck as to if he could perform magic tricks or not. His deal had mostly been directed towards Kaeor himself. As much as a true doctor I was, I didn’t really care about the health of him or whomever he was so concerned about.

His gaze at me had previously been responded to with that of equal annoyance, the look that I gave everyone else when I wasn’t too keen on hanging around much more. Sure enough the offer of money was something that I wanted. I had no real reason for having so much ryo but something inside me craved it- I knew that money couldn’t buy happiness deep down, but deep down I was sure that something in me believed that it did. The clothes I wore were expensive, but only for durability so that I wouldn’t have to buy more and more pairs and waste my money. Keeping my gaze locked on Soratsu, I’d then shift my position once more as I walked to the side, so that he was no longer behind me, and so that now, the three of us stood in a triangle formation, each staring at each other as if it was some kind of game. I was getting tired. This shit was getting boring now.

”You need to raise funds funds? What the fuck are you going to do, arrange a bake sale or something? I’m pretty sure you’ve got more serious shit than that in mind..

..Prove to me that you aren’t as dim-witted as you seem to be, Soratsu.

What’re you planning to do that’s so important to you..?

I was insisting that he divulge his plans- Of course I hadn’t even been invited to join this treehouse club that he had seemed to create, but at the same time, I wanted to find out exactly what he wanted to do, why he wanted to do this, and how he was going to get all this money that he spoke of. The last few words I spoke were in the same tone that I had used against Kaeor- Sweet, angelic and suttle, but so caring, it was a tone that I usually used against chumps like these two, but I wanted to find out more- I needed to find out more. If the Hyuuga was stupid enough to fall for this then surely he trusted him to some degrees or he was pretending to do so. Backstabbers were pretty common, and to be honest, I was one to a certain degree, but the unison of those two couldn’t go well at all times, I was pretty sure of it, seeing as their first confrontation hadn’t started off so well.

However, still standing where I was with my right hand raising and flicking hair away from my face again, I’d keep listening to the both of them as the three of us stood in such a strange formation. Of course, I was fucking raging inside that they hadn’t decided to include me as of yet. I had shown my medical skills, and surely they would need someone with an ability such as that if they wanted to do the dangerous things that I assumed Soratsu had planned, and yet they ignored me- I, not being particularly fond of being ignoredand placed out of the limelight, I’d cross my arms, my body language and facial expression showing that I wasn’t too happy at the moment. If anything I was the perfect teammate- I was the eye candy with intelligence and power to boot- If they didn’t want a piece of this then they could go fuck themselves.

What’re you planning to do that’s so important to you..?

That was an intriguing question, to say the least. I wasn't sure whether or not to sugar coat my words, seeing how Kaeor appeared to be all about maintaining the peace and his loyalty to Kumogakure, whilst Blanche was all holy about herself. It was a difficult predicament, but I decided against my better judgement in hopes that they weren't as blind sighted about their vilage's affairs as I had been for the last ten years. Truthfully, it took me a moment to think over what I truly wanted - should I tell them the whole truth, or just a fraction of it?

"If you consider robbing and destroying a village serious, then yes, you're correct." I spoke, my eyes having followed her when she moved. I wasn't just staring at her aimlessly and for no reason, I was instead pondering what kind of use she could have to me. I didn't make it unknown that I thought of them of just tools, however, if they were achieving something they really wanted in the process, how would it hurt them? "Blanche," I spoke, allowing her name to roll off my tongue for the first time. "Do you know the reason all the shinobi villages went to war? Greed."

Surely, having witnessed her village get destroyed first hand, she would know where my words were leading. "No one knows who or even what exactly was the cause of the war, but that didn't stop the shinobi system from spilling thousands of innocent blood. I'm not going to sugar coat it, my goal is the complete and utter destruction of such a system." With that, not even waiting to gauge their reactions, I turned around and started walking away. I no longer had a reason to dwell in this part of the country anymore, if they weren't going to join me that was their prerogative.

"We all need funds for our own personal reasons, so if you guys want it now your best bet is to come with me. You too blondy, rebuilding a village isn't cheap."

Like before my hand shot up, waving at them nonchalantly for the last time. Disappearing around a corner again, I'd speak loudly enough for them to both hear me.

"Meet me back here at the same time in a week if you're in."

So like some flea ridden dog he had returned to us in effort to display new tricks. Neither of us were truly hypnotized by the grandeur of his technique, so that right there was an absolute fail. Blanche cleverly prodded more at what we both believed to be his pint sized brain. Surprisingly, some gears still actually functioned and clicked in that mind of his. But was it enough for him to provide me with what I needed? At this time I had completely surrendered myself to false hopes and anything that I could clench too. Unfortunately, I was desperate for a cure.

So as long as his madness sounded achievable then he had my ears at his divine whim. The chicanery of his personality ebbed out in his comments to Blanche. It was clear that he was trying to twist her into his web but I didn't know her well enough to warn her. Plus with that over-sized ego of hers she should have no problem deciphering the truth from his words. At the end, Soratsu left me with a decision to make. With nothing but time I would carefully follow his exit before stopping to turn towards Blanche behind me once more.

"Thanks again." I stammered with a slight smile after she had confirmed my research. It was time to head home to Kumogakure in the meantime and think.

Mhm- To rob and destroy a village, or villages, eh? I’m sure that he had some kind of tearful sob story behind all this to explain for his actions, it sounded as if there was. I wasn’t too fond of causing trouble with villages myself seeing as when Kusagakure came back in to political view, the last thing I wanted was to have all the villages turn against Kusa because of my actions- But would I risk that much in order to gain some hope that perhaps some day we’d be able to rebuild our los home? It was an idea that I would need to think about, and although the guy was a complete asswipe, he had some kind of point. As he kept speaking, now directing his words at me as he spoke my name, he both asked a question and answered it- The answer, however, was something that I knew years back. How could I not know the various motives behind destroying villages after having first handedly had my own crushed by opposing villages? Did he think I was an idiot?

But no- It wasn’t the sheer fact that he was telling us these things, it was the fact that he was speaking to us as if he was above the both of us, which was an entire lie. Who did he think he is, trying to reign above me? There was no holier icon than myself, and right now, he was treating himself as if he was the Queen of fucking Jordan. The shinobi system had lasted for centuries now and it had become a stable point in the lives of many, surely bringing problems and complications, but it would be hard to shift it. If anything, he was a complete douche to think that he could claim such a goal- It was laughable how serious he was when speaking about it. In order to wipe out the shinobi system then surely he’d need to kill people, and if the money I got in order to feed the village that I so wanted to rebuild came from bloody hands, I wouldn’t be sure how to respond to that.

..Or would I?

”You. Are. Being. The biggest fucking pansy I have ever seen. Why the fuck are you acting as if you care where you get the money from? As long as you get it in the end.. there’s no problem with it.” my mind having a large clash of thoughts once more my expression would change sourly to that of distaste for a few moments before returning to normal- she did have a point- I was losing my touch. The fuck did I care if people were slaughtered in the meantime? They probably deserved it anyway. The shinobi system was inflicted and the only way to save it was to exterminate those who didn’t go against the Soratsu’s view but was I really going to give my very being away to a man who’s plan I wasn’t entirely sure of, yet? I preferred knowing what I was going to do, and right now he’d just said things.. and left, commanding us to meet in this spot in a week should we want go along with his bullshit plan.

As I soon watched Kaeor leave with a polite thank you, I’d then seem to authorize his exit with a nod, leaving me to myself- Would I reallu meet back with these losers in the timeframe of a week? Or would my mind change by then? They definitely weren’t worth my time, but something inside me wanted me to prove myself to others that I am someone to be scared of- to fear. It was a contradicting thought seeing as the other half of me was against killing but- I wasn’t exactly the best person to speak to about sanity, now wasn’t I.

EXIT!
