Of course it was in this place. Never any rest, never any sleep. The forest was always awake and alive, yet death happened all around. Just this morning he'd killed that squirrel with that kunai. Stupid squirrel shouldn't have looked at him that way and messed up his lunch. He thought back to his old village... Kusa no Kuni. Such an unsightly place. So... inconsistent and clustered. It hurt his eyes just to think of the architecture of the place. Of course, it would trouble him no more. But... he couldn't help feel drawn back to his old stone hut outside of the walls. The one that was supposed to be under survelance. Of course it never was because of that stupid old Kusakage, always concerned with money rather than keeping his village safe. He'd have sold it in a heartbeat for a couple of copper. A loud sound was coming from the distance. Someone was approaching. As the light footsteps drew nearer, he waited in the shadows, prepared to ambush whoever came near. Until he saw her... Wait a minute... she's from Kusa... I've seen her before, when I came back from that mission with the rib poking out of my side. |
He pushed the bush he was hiding behind, aside, as if it were nothing, the rich green leaves once bathed in darkness were now forcefully taken into the light. And he stood as she moved directly towards him.
"Hey... over here!"
He raised his hand slightly in a wave-like gesture, further indicating that he was here and that she was to speak with him. Didn't really matter if she stopped, he'd still follow her. He needed a conversation. I mean, he'd lived alone for most of his life but even he needed a talk at times and this girl was rather nice looking, not to mention she was from Kusa, like him.
He fiddled with his eyepatch as he waited...
