Akashi began her usuall patroll of the surrounding forest of Konohoa. Takeshi was following close behind her scanning the surrounding area. She sighed and sat on a rock fixing her hair slightly, "Tk it's been kinda boring around here...don't you think?" Tk sat on the ground next to her and stretched out digging his claws into the ground, Hai...Since everyone left... Akashi shrugged then smiled, "At least my father will be returning home soon...I've missed him..." Tk nodded and hummed softly, I know...

OOC: is this open to post? ^^

Kouta wandered around, trying to get a feel for the Area, when he came to a lady with A wolf next to her, "Um... hi" Kouta said, Strangly cheerful today.

Akashi turned her head slowly, she had sensed Kouta approaching. She bowed her head slightly, her hair fell onto her mask slightly. "Who are you?" Tk was on his guard now, not to sure about Kouta.

Kouta looked at Akashi, "please, no need to be formal, Im Kouta Hiroke" Kouta smiled.

Akashi shrugged, "I always act formal around people I first meet, And I'm Akashi Hatake..." She pointed to Tk who still had his guard up, "And this is my companion, Takeshi.."

Kouta bowed slightly, "You live in this village?"

Akashi nodded, looking up at the sky. She sighed, "Hai...I do." She looked back at Kouta and moved her hand to her katana, "You don't?"

Kouta looked at her hand and sighed, "No, i dont... i dont belong to any village..."

Akashi nodded slightly then lazily rested her hand on her blade, "I see...You're just a wonderer then?"

"Pretty much, gettin dull though, not much to do on the roads, but i dont really have a choice..."

Akashi gave another nod then turned to Tk, with a sigh she sideglanced Kouta, "I suggest you find a home...Because no one is to tresspass in this forest..."

"No need for hostility, No villages will accept me, im marked as an outcast..."

Akashi sighed, "It's my duty to be hostile...I patroll these woods for anyone who means to threaten the Hidden Leaf village..." She glanced back at Kouta once more, "I give missing Nin one chance to leave...Then I send you out with force."
