Mizuki chuckled as the little kunoichi mildly scolded her for going off alone. [b]"Ah do not worry little kunoichi. Relax a little."[/b] she said with a cheerful smile as she removed her soaked clothes as well! setting them to the side upon a warm rock.

Indeed, the hot spring felt good on her tired body and she could barely feel the injuries she sustained. Although it was tempting to go and wander off deeper into the forest, the hot spring at least kept her at ease. Never had she experienced such a relaxing bath, back at the palace, sure she could go into the royal bathe but it was nothing like being out in the open like this.

Ears drooping to the sides slightly in relaxation, she barely caught someone else entering the spring. Already figuring it was one of the Guardians, she was about to turn and greet them but froze when she felt something really soft press against her back. It wasn't like anything she experienced, very soft, warm and yet firm if not a little squeezable. The princess also found her tail in a warmer part of the spring, trapped between two soft objects. Curiously, her tail moved up to brush against the solid surface only to freeze as she heard a scream and she felt a pair of fingers grip the fluffy appendage.

[b]"Yeouch!!!!!!!"[/b] Mizuki yelped painfully a bit loudly, her body whirling around in the water to see the Priestess.

Whining a little, her eyes watering a little as she grabbed her own tail and gently started petting it. Only recently she received such extra body parts, but she knew they were very sensitive after playing with them herself. Golden eyes flicking to Hanami as the priestess asked if she was alright, giving a playful pout as a response.

[b]"Hanami-San I know I startled you but please be gentle with me, okay?"[/b] she said before smiling brightly. [b]"I'm glad your awake and looking well. You had us all worried. You shouldn't forget to take care of yourself too."[/b] she said leaning close so their noses were barely touching before perking up as she spotted Kaede and Asuka.

[b]"Hi Kaede-San, Asuka-San. Glad you could join us, this hot spring should help your bodies feel a little better."[/b] Mizuki chirped, obviously uncaring how close she got to the Priestess despite both of them being absent of clothes.

As Kaede stripped and entered the spring but Asuka went over to sit by a tree, Mizuki frowned in disapproval before climbing out of the spring. Smoothly crawling on all fours to the Ronin before sitting up. Giving the Ronin a stubborn disapproving look.

[b]"Asuka-San, you should join us as well. I think you need it the most. So get in or I'll make you."[/b] Mizuki said firmly, despite the cheerful smile she had. Her tail wagging innocently behind her.
