Returning to Childhood

[Pikachu]

As the morning sun rose over the Hidden Mist Village, standing on a cliff outside was Kazuma Ishimaru. He glared over the village as the memories of his life there flowed through his head. A smirk appeared on his shadow hidden face (he was wearing his cone hat at the time).

"Funny, isn't it? I left this village after it was thrown into chaos, and now I'm coming back after throwing another one into chaos. Wonder if these people finally stopped there stupid fighting. Guess we'll find out,won't we?"

Ishimaru started heading down the trail towards the village. It felt good coming home.

[Michael]

Shagoth was sitting next to Kazuma. "Yes, Quite funny indeed." He replied as he got up and followed Kazuma.

After a few minutes of walking down the trail, Shagoth was about right next to him. "So! What are we going to do here today, Kazuma? Well, besides the daily village check-ups and all?"

Shagoth was stretching a bit as he was walking.

[Pikachu]

Ishimaru glanced back at his partner before turning his attention back to the trail.

"Nothing really. I'm just here for a more personal reason. Nostalgia and such. As you should know I did live here before joining Lord Orochimaru."

Lord Orochimaru. After all this time I still call him that. Hmm, guess old habits die hard."

"Anyways, I want you to behave yourself while we are here. I am the most wanted man in the world right now, so drawing too much attention to ourselves could cause a situation we don't want."

[Max Insue]

"huh, who are those strangers" Johan muttered as he jumped from tree to tree, "they dont look too friendly, and they definitely arent from the Mist Villiage, "what are you strangers doing here" Johan said smiling, alothogh behind his smile he was thinking hard about these two, the one in front seemed strange, there wasnt much of a good aura coming from him, although he hoped they werent too bad, the Mist Villiage didnt need another fight, it had enough of them already.

[Pikachu]

Ishimaru looked over at the Mist Village shinobi. He didn't seem to be that big of a threat, but he kept his guard ready just in case.

"Nothing really. I just came home for a visit. It's been a while since I've visited the Mist Village and decided to come by. This is my friend Shagoth. Any particular reason a shinobi like you is out here at this time of day?"

[Max Insue]

"i live here" Johan said blankly at Ishimaru, tapping the mist symbol on his forehead protecter, hmm, where could these guys have come from, they aren't from the mist villiage Johan pondered, his eyes darting over the strange robes the two were wearing, where are you guys from anyway?" he asked them.

[Pikachu]

"Inquisitive little fellow,aren't you? You know that sometimes that is good, but other times its bad. Like I said, I used to live in this Village, long before your time for that matter. As for my friend, I'll let him introduce himself if he wants to. Anyways, if you excuse me I would like to get moving."

Ishimaru walked by the genin and continued on his way down to the village without a second glance back.

[Michael]

Shagoth listened some to what Kazuma said and watched him walk by Johan.

Since Kazuma said this was a personal matter, I think I'll just leave him do his business. After all if Kazuma needs any thing he only needs to yell.

Shagoth approached Johan. "Hmm...." He said, as Shagoth examined him closely. "What did ya say your name was, my boy?"

[Max Insue]

((genin *twitches* lol only jking))

"i didnt" Johan replied to the other man, he let Kazuma past without inquiring anymore, "but my name is Johan, not that it matters much" Johan muttered, before leapig up onto a building, "well, later" he said to them before walking to the other edge of the building and leaping down, "somethings off with them two" he muttered as he crossed another street and disappeared down an alleyway.

[Michael]

Shagoth watched as the boy took off. "Well..." He said to him self.

Not one for conversations, is he...?

Shagoth decided to catch up with Kazuma, so he went on his way. After about 5 minutes Shagoth caught up with Kazuma. "Well then, what are we look....." A bar caught his attention. "Hmm... I do need to refill my Saki jugs..." He said to himself as he began to walk towards the bar.

[Pikachu]

Ishimaru watched as Shagoth headed into a bar. He just shook his head. Shagoth was mentally unstable enough without alcohol, yet he always made sure to have a constant supply of it. Still, the drinks did have their purposes when a battle came.

As Shagoth got his Sake, Ishimaru headed off to where his home used to stand. In its place was a ramen bar.

So much for nostalgia. They placed a restaurant on my old home.Ah well, what can I do?

[Michael]

Shagoth got in the bar and started re-supplying his Saki jugs. "Ha Ha Ha! I won’t run low any time soon!" He shouted as he filled his jugs. After he was done, he then went to the bar tender. "Hey, I'll have a glass of you finest." He said as he sat down.

[Pikachu]

With his trip to his old home done with, and pretty much absolute boredom of the city already, Ishimaru headed to the bar to pick up Shagoth and to leave. There was nothing else of importance there anyways. Placing his hand on Shagoth's shoulder, he spoke.

"If your done with your drink, I believe it's time to go. Besides, there isn't anything interesting in this place anyways."

[Michael]

Shagoth looked up at Kazuma. "Leave? Now? Are you sure you don't want to have a drink? It's a good year." He said, after taking a big gulp of Saki. After that he grabbed a glass of Saki and offered it to Kazuma.

[Pikachu]

Ishimaru shook his head. He never was one for alcohol.

"No thank you. If you need me I'll be waiting outside.Don't drink too much though. Remember your condition, and the fact I'm not carrying you around."

With that done he headed outside to wait out Shargoth's drinking. Shargoth was a bad drunk, and he didn't want to get involved.
