Keiko didn't know if she would be able to contain her excitement any longer with the way things were going. Thankfully, the Empress released them, and Keiko was already gliding away on what appeared to be a giant flower petal. Seconds before, that same petal was in her satchel with hundreds of flower petals that looked exactly like it, except much smaller in size and useless without her jutsu. She glided by bug-girl and the red-head, giggling loudly and turning to look over her shoulder briefly. 

"Hmmm." Keiko hummed curiously to herself, swearing that hornet girl was the host of the 8-tailed beast. She shrugged it off. For some reason her memory had failed her, but then again, she didn't really communicate with any of her [i]comrades[/i]. Most of her time was spent in the forests, or in the new Flower Shop, and she didn't feel the need to know anything more about them than their names.
