Her head turned - following Kaba as he walked off. She wasn't able to get a good read on him, and never exactly talked to the boy in class. Jaakuna soared past them next, screaming something about being last - inhaling deeply, and exhaling a great sigh the girl gripped her backpack straps and walked forward. Following the group, Nadia sure to be at her heels only because her voice didn't stop ringing in her ears. Kiku had no will to run, as her legs weren't all that fixed just quiet yet - and the muscles continued to hurt as they were overly strained when running/jumping/leaping became involved. [color=bc8dbf]"We're not really sure whats going to happen,"[/color] She stated simply as she slid her mask back over her eyes. Letting out a click her world mapped out, following her teammates chakra flow. Hoping they'd reach Kumo sooner than later and all in one piece. [center][b][color=ed1c24][h2]- Kumo - [/h2][/color][/b] [/center] Arriving in late afternoon, the Special Forces squad strolled into the town. Kiku reached into her Kunai holder and pulled out her glasses - quickly putting her mask in place of them. Adjusting them on her face, she stared around the town in awe. It was far different than that of Konoha, pillars, small mountains of pointed rock it seems. Brief small talk ensued between the teammates - leading to a more stable foundation. As they talked of their own skills, it solidified places during battle. At least that is what went through the lavender Kunoichi's mind. She looked to Nadia and sighed quietly, hoping that the prepubescent Uchiha would be able to hold her own - despite what they came across. She'd be of much help though, if she really was as skilled as she claimed to be. Kaba tended to stay quiet and in his own world, him and Kiku only exchanging a small conversation based on him being next in line for Head of the clan. He was rather prideful on it - as Kiku questioned him about his clan. He seemed rather reluctant to talk about it, and then faded away into shorter answers. Kiku eventually stopped asking questions, and began to wonder what Shizuka was up to. He sure could make a trip interesting from his pure antics. Kiku had also gotten to talk more to Ryoko, learning a bit about her past from Kumo. She felt uneasy with Jaak as to how dismissive he was to her apology earlier, but he seemed unaffected by her presence. That was fine with her. Nadia of course would bubble up some kind of conversation, that Kiku didn't have a problem being a part. Her main concern was later encounters, but this was the young girls decision after all. As she began to examine the crowd of people, she realized eyes were on the team - her face turned to Rokyo. [color=bc8dbf]"So, where do we go from here?" [/color]Her eyes met a few of the natives of Kumo's and she swallowed a small lump in her throat. Kiku hadn't traveled too much to other cities - this being her first time in Kumo. It had a slightly overwhelming affect, as to not being in her own hometown and knowning the inns and outs. Rokyo being here had eased the that worry.

She did not flinch, or tense a muscle as he glided towards her. This scene reminiscent in some way. Her breath was cut short as their eyes met, she knew this man. She knew him very, very well. The girl kept her hand with the katana extended. He gracefully pushed into it, and his ruby life expelled down the sword onto her hand in a soothing warmth. Her satanic smile faded as she was gently swept into his arms, the two words that left his mouth causing her body to shake with resolution.  Her body crumpled into his as she shook, her arms quickly shoving him away as she removed the katana. Throwing it to the earth, she placed her hands on his face - her thumbs rubbing his cheeks. "[color=f49ac2]Senpai,[/color] [color=f6989d]Havoc,[/color] [color=f6989d]it really really really is you,"[/color] Kyo began to jump up and down -spinning in a circle she collapsed onto him her arms wrapping around his neck. Her eyes opened to see the surging of blood from his wound, she moved her mouth closer lapping up some of the blood.  [color=f49ac2]"Its you, its you, its you, its you....."[/color] She continued to repeat, as she nuzzled her face against his scraggly beard. "You really have to get rid of that, it doesn't feel good. We can't go home, I burned it down. We have to find a new home, did you know that I've killed over 100 people since you've been gone? You'll have to read the scroll, our writing has gotten better" Kyo continued babbling, filling him in on the past 2 years. Her stories cutting short, as she thought of another,  better one to tell in  the midst of every single one. [color=f6989d]"Oh, wait!"[/color] She released herself, and ran to where the umbrella was. Still floating with the chakra she was providing, she lifted her hands up and it sailed gracefully into them. Holding it over her, she walked back to Havoc and placed her hand on his head, as she sheltered them with the umbrella. Her hand rested on his head, fingers swimming through his long mane he acquired whilst away - her fingers getting tangled in with the knots. She looked around and back to him[color=f49ac2] "Its like when we met, except this time we didn't fight. Remember you almost killed me? Oh! Her, We have to kill her. Lets go back. She took me, Senpai, she took me and made me not remember. I remembered though - after you left, these men tried to take me. I guess they did, I don't know. But she knows us, she's been watching us. We have to kill her before she kills us, she wants to. She said it. She's sick, should we wait so its more fun? She'll be more surrounded now. We could go back undercover" [/color] Plans soared out of her mouth as she stood over him, umbrella blocking the rain from coming down on him and her. Kyo rocked her head side to side as she rambled on more plans, then stopped dead in her sentence. Looking at him. [color=f6989d]"You're really here," [/color]her finger touched his cheek, then pinched it as if to make sure his skin and body was real. "Who was that girl with you? What have you been doing? Why are you here?" If one thing was certain, it would have to be that Havoc may have to readjust to her consistent babbling. Giving the umbrella to the worn  down man, Kyo ran back out into the rain. Hopping in puddles like a child, as she scooped the Katana from the ground.[color=f6989d] "Do you like it? I made it with some help - [I]Chihone[/I]"[/color] She held it proudly, dirt and debris washing off in the pounding rain. A smile was prominent on  her face, prideful, manic, expressive. Walking back to Havoc, she quickly resheathed the bone and wrapped her arms around his waist. Nestling her head into his chest. [color=f6989d]"Never leave again. I was so bored, I missed you"[/color] Looking out into the rain Kyo examined the edges of the field, unaware of the Konoha Kunoichi that were heading their way. But it'd be a perfect start to the duo reuniting. A true test of their workmanship as a famous killing duo. Kyo inhaled deeply, and squirmed with happiness from the reuniting of the two. [color=f49ac2]"What was it like when you were gone? You missed me? I thought of you every day, it's been 2 years. Do you think I've gotten stronger? I still trained a lot, but I cant do that umbrella thing like you can, Senpai. Look at all this stuff I got!"[/color] Spinning quickly, showing off all her charms she had collected in the past two years. [color=f49ac2]"So many things, I have to tell you all the stories"[/color]
