He never would have imagined Jakuuna as the type to get arrested. He had seemed … well … so invisible. Sorta like his old self, he wasn't sure if it was fair to say old but as of late, he'd been in the spotlight quite a bit. [b]H[/b]owever, he didn't pry. It was not his place but more importantly … he didn't really care to that degree. [b]D[/b]aiki smiled at Jakuuna's crude greeting before silence took over. Minutes ticked by and as they did, he found himself pondering on Kusaru and Gian. Countless tatics that he knew would fail crossed his mind. Ideas that he quickly shot down the moment he realized their end-point. The fact of the matter was, he had no idea who or what they were. So he could only think that he needed to grow stronger as a person and a ninja. He needed to work on himself as well as his skills. [b]H[/b]e needed … to become more. [b]W[/b]hen the metallic sounds of locks clanked and clinked, he turned his golden gaze onto the woman he would be protecting. Immediately, he leaned off the wall, dazed, if not shocked all together. She was small and fairy-like, seemingly … impossibly green. Like some chosen guardian of the leaf. [b]H[/b]e reached out slowly and gripped her hand, staring at her with a fixated chill. That period of time … that long moment when she stared at him was weird. It made him feel uncomfortable as if she was plucking apart his outer-shell or at the very least, analyzing him. [color=red] “[b]S[/b]ure, if it makes you happy.”[/color] Was his response to her childish whims. [b]O[/b]nce she was done greeting Takeshi and Jakuuna, Daiki stood off behind them with a shoulder towards the actress. He was wary of her now. She seemed liked a princess, someone who hadn't worked a day in their life. He didn't particularly enjoy pampering people like that. But a mission was a mission. [b]D[/b]aiki stuck his hand in his jean pockets before responding. [color=red] “[b]S[/b]orry, I don't think my shoulder's that big, Ms. Shuyo. Let's try my back instead,”[/color] He recommended before kneeling down with his back towards her.
