Rio looked up at the house and quietly listened to Kaizo talk, finding his voice comforting. "Well, likewise eheh.... And you do know me well, atleast you know as much about me as I do" Rio gave a little nervous chuckle of her own as she continued to listen to Kaizo, nodding as he spoke. "Indeed we have.... And yes, I do know that" Rio looked off into the distance away from Kaizo, mainly to hide her blush as it brightened a little more however she managed to make it disappear soon enough. "Erm... Kaizo... I need to tell you something so might as well tell you know before I forget. Soon I'm going to be heading to my Clan with two others, mainly just to sort out some things... I won't be gone long though so it hopefully won't conflict with my duties as your Lieutenant. I'll make sure to sort everything out as soon as possible and let you know what happened when I return, if you'd like to know that is..." Rio then looked back at Kaizo, giving him a small smile before looking back at the house. "Are you Okay with this?" [/Quote]

Kaizo continued to look at Rio as he listened to her speak "Well that certainly makes me feel better..." Kaizo then saw Rio look off then he listened as she spoke. Kaizo closed his eyes then took a deep breath before re-opening them "I see...I'm sure you've mentioned your clan before so this sort of thing doesn't come as a surprise to me..." Kaizo thought back to when Rio told him about her eye, this made him slightly angry however he hid this completely "As long as you are not gone for long and come back I will be fine with this, I think I can handle a small while, while you sort this clan business out...And when you do return I would like to know if you are okay with telling me. I will be worried but I am okay with this...if you need any help at all then do not be afraid to contact me, I am here to help you as your partner and Captain...if I cannot do that then I am failing in both things I hold so proudly..."
