O-to-ko-yo (hide-n-seek) Ninja Style!

[Kurai_Tsuki]

I. am. ninja! You. cannot. see me!! Hehe..wonderful game of hide and seek, Ninja Style!!!!!

Who wants to start off first?

[Nappers]

"I hate the sun,” the tempestuous teen said aloud in his whiny voice. From head to toe he was dressed in his favourite colour, black. He wore a plain baseball cap turned back-to-front; a t-shirt with some vague band's name printed on the front; finger-gloves; jeans that had been hacked virtually to shreds; and sandals.

How morbid of him, but typical of Rey. He hated being ‘Ninja' though that's aside the point.

Arcing his arm upwards he scratched at the back of his neck.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Sitting in a tree by herself, clad in all black, like always, from the baggy black t-shirt with the words "Your pain makes me laugh" writen in red letters to the baggy black pants that's snuggled to her waist to her black gothic toe-covered boots to the wrist guards that covered her arms, Kurai wondered silently if there could be something she could do. She sighed, thinking of nothing, and resigned herself to silent thoughts and enjoying the slight breeze that played with her hair.

[wolfnin]

Sitting on top of a tree, Kirro stared out into the field. Looking around, Kirro noticed a couple of ninja just standing there. Smiling, he relaxed himself. Wearing his usual blue shirt with a white undershirt underneath. As well as his baggy jeans, Kirro smiled as he tossed his kunai up and down. "I wonder what am I going to do today." he asked himself.

[Nappers]

Dragging his sandals along the floor he walked with his hands buried in his pockets. Wayward strands of hair fell about his face, obscuring his view from the narrow path. Either side of the dirt-trail was decorated with intertwining trees. Not enough to save him from the sun who's sole agenda was to radiate and peel away the skin on his bare arms and neck.

A gust of wind cleared his eyes of the hair that blocked his view.

"People,” he spat out, they had already disgusted him without even a formal introduction. Keeping his head down he hoped that he could walk past them, or under and past the tree as it were, without even being taken notice of. As if his black armour doubled as an invisibility cloak.

He hoped.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

As if she wasn't piss-off enough as it was, she noticed a group of people walk under the tree was sitting in. "People,"she spat out the word as if it were poison. How she dispised people with a passion that would not extinguish. Glaring at the infuriating intruders who interupted her silence, she stayed silent, in the hopes of not being noticed. Wind rustling the leaves and the noisy chattering of the group was all that was heard. How she wished for more silence. She wanted so badly to go else where. To find some peace and quiet. But hiden she stayed. A shadow in the dence tree.

[wolfnin]

Kirro looked around notcing a couple of shinobi around. Kirro stared around at the other shinobi staring them straight in the eye. Kirro made no movement and began walking hoping no one would bother him. He was annoyed and bored and felt like running around alone.

[Nappers]

The girl stood out amidst the treetop like a crow perched at the top of a Christmas tree in place of a bright star. Her style absolved him. She appeared just as disinterested with her surroundings as he. Though perhaps a similar appreciation for privacy and solitude. Standing beneath her tree he leered up at her with his blue hair falling to either side of his face.

"Hey-" he said sharply with a voice devoid of enthusiasm.

Where had happiness gone?

"Bored?” a pathetic attempt at conversation though he was no master in these things, he himself was hardly a the avid socialite. He stood there and waited with peaked ears for any response though his eyes scattered around, staring at the other for a moment before looking back upward.

Was everyone borrowing the same feeling?

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Startled from her thoughts, Kurai looked down to the one who spoke. She stared at a blue haired boy who was staring at her. She didn't answer. She was in no mood for casual conversation, though it looked as if the boy wasn't either. Perhaps he was just bored and was looking for something to do. 'Doesn't matter. Why would he want to talk to me?' she thought to herself. Settling her resolve, she glared at the boy, shook her head, and took off to another tree. 'Quiet,' she thought,'that's all I want.' Closing her eyes, she decided for silence and solitude. However, her silence was interupted. Opening her eyes to a rustle of leaves, she stared at a fox. A black fox,'Unusual color for a fox. And it has...blue eyes?' It stared back at her. Vaguely she wondered why it was up in a tree. Deciding she didn't care one way or another, she closed her again to loose herself in her thoughts once more.

Kirro walked toward the two ninjas over there. It had seem like everyone just wanted to be alone. Kirro was bored and felt like doing something. As he approached the two ninjas, he looked around seeing if there was anything to do. "Hey" Kirro said waiting for an answer. Looking at the girl in the tree, Kirro jumped landing right next to her. "Don't feel like talking that much, huh?" Kirro said smiling. Looking at the boy below Kirro sat down as he waited for any of the two to respond.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Snapping her eys open, Kurai glared at this new boy who had perched himself in her tree. "No," she bit out. The fox, seemingly to be pushed by her emotion, raised it's hackles and growled at this intruder. No doubt wanted him to leave. 'I agree with you fox. Man, why me? Why do I always attract guys who want to boter me, when I obviously don't want to be bothered?' she thought in frustration. Aggrivated-to-no-end, she stood up and steadied herself on her branch, took careful aim, and jumped to land heavily on the boy's perch. This caused the branch to bounce and knock the boy off, causing him to fall.

[wolfnin]

Getting knocked off balanced, Kirro landed on the floor hard. Grunting Kirro stood up, rubbing his right arm. He landed on it pretty hard and it was a good thing it wasn't broken. "Somethings obviously bothering you. Why do you have be so cold and shun yourself from the rest of the world. You know you should open up to some people." Kirro said looking at the girl. Looking toward the fox he said "Also one more thing wolves are better."

Kirro stood there still looking at the girl refusing to move.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Annoyed and pissed-off, Kurai was getting ready to leave when the fox pulled on her pants leg. She looked down at the fox who had on a puppy face. "Aww, don't give me that look. Would you like to come with me?" The fox nodded. So she picked up the fox, and giving on last glare at the boy,"I don't like people telling me what to do." she took off in some random direction. The fox, being the content little thing that it was, fell asleep. Not looking back, Kurai kept on to some far off cave where she usually went when she wanted to be alone. Which was usually all the time, but that's beside the point. Going behind a waterfall where the cave was, she sat down and placed the fox carefully in her lap so as not to wake it. Content at where she was, she let the sound of the waterfall sooth her frustrated nerves and calmed down. Soon, she was back in her own little world lost in her thoughts once more.

[Nappers]

"Moron," the boy half smiled as he looked at the boy on the floor.

"You shouldn't talk to people like you know them.. Particularly girls. You never know when they're PMS'ing or something," his eyes darted about the leaves and branches as a rustling and a 'woosh' took the girl away. Spinning his head he caught a slight glance at what he thought was her taking off.

"And now.. She's gone," shrugging his shoulders he looked down at the other boy."Wolf-boy. Fancy hunting?" with a shrug of his shoulders and not a care to wait for an answer he too darted off in pursuit of the mistress of solitude.

She was an enigma.

A puzzle.

A thrill.

He stalked her from a fair distance away. But in turning a corner, she disappeared. A lagoon and a waterfall. That's all there was. 'Hm. Did she notice me?' Pocketing his hands he aimlessly walked the rim of the lagoon, looking for her but taking no interest in what he saw. Giving up for a moment he fiddeled around in his pockets.

From his left he discovered his pack of cigarettes and from his right his lighter. Fiddling with the packet he slid out a single stick and placed it between his lips.

And lit it.

A terrible habbit. But who cared?

[wolfnin]

Kirro watched as the two other people dart off, Kirro wondered if he should follow. The girl had already been annoyed and the other boy had gone off and followed her. Kirro felt as if he should apologize, but would she accept it. Shaking his head, Kirro looked at where the girl dashed off. Smiling, Kirro decided to follow, hoping that maybe he could have some fun.

"So she's upset and the world and me..I wonder why? Like the boy said though, girls..they confuse you. Looks like I have nothing else to do, but follow." Kirro said smiling. Instead of following as is, Kirro transformed himself into a wolf. It would make a better disguise or atleast she may not feel threatened. Running off Kirro ran after the two ninjas into the forest.

Arriving near a lagoon and a waterfall, Kirro smelled the air around him. Smelling smoke, Kirro looked around trying to spot what was on fire. The boy was smoking a cigarette, ignoring him, Kirro continued to sniff around trying to look for the girl

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Kurai opened her eyes to the sent of the two boys from earlier. Gently setting the fox down beside her, she got up and stretched until her back cracked several times. Grunting, she stood up-right and walked around alittle to wear off the stiffness in her legs. Turning to the waterfall, she concentrated her energy to her eyes, letting her see what lies on the other side of the fall. Sure enough, the two boys from earlier were there, one seemed to be waiting for something, the other looked to have transformed himself into a ....wolf? 'Hmmm, interesting. So I'm not the only one who can transform themselves into an animal.' she thought, befuddled and amused at the same time. 'He looks to be trying to find my sent. Hope he has fun.' she thought with a grin. She looked at the fox who was still sleeping, and smiled,'A new friend, huh? Well, that suits me just fine.'

Sitting down again, Kurai let her hair fall into her face, and sighed. Crossing her legs, she cleared her mind and concentrated on her breathing, meditating. 'I'm tired of running. Let them come. I'll be waiting. Maybe we could...have alittle fun.' she thought with a devious grin. With that thought in mind, she fell back into her meditation.

[wolfnin]

Kirro sniffed around trying to find the girl's scent. Entering a nearby cave, Kirro began to pick up a faint smell. It was the fox....Growling Kirro began following the scent. He didn't mind the fox yet he growled to keep any other animal at bay. As he continued following the scent, he finally found the girl. She had her eyes close and was meditating. Kirro growled lowly as he noticed the fox. Walking cautiously to the girl, he stared at her for a moment, then sat down as his eyes were locked on her. Wagging his tail, he decided to wait a while to see what was going to happen, before transforming back to normal.

[Nappers]

Glancing at the curious 'wolf' as it skittered about the place he didn't pay it much attention beyond that. Pocketing one hand and fiddling with the butt of his cigarette with the other. Taking a long, soothing drag he filled his lungs with musky exctacy. Licking his lips before steadily expelling the puff of smoke.

A grin curled into the ends of his lips. Itching the back of his neck he turned to glance again at the wolf. It seemed transfixed on.. something.

What've you found?

Again dragging at the cigarette he followed the wolf from a fair distance away, curious as to what it's nose had lead it to. His eyes widened as he, the wolf, had found her, the ever elusive one. He smiled as he stood and watched from a far.

Looks like trouble.

His thoughts drifting back and forth between the girl, his extasy, and the blasted heat.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Kurai took a deep breath, and slowly opened her eyes to find that the "wolf" was sitting right in front of her. The fox was growling at the wolf and edging toward her(the girl not the wolf). Kurai stared at the wolf and it stared right back. This continued for about ten minutes when the fox, who was right beside her, was finely noticed by Kurai. The fox had touched her knee with it's nose. When Kurai looked at it, it twitched it's ears and walked toward the back of the cave. Curious, Kurai followed, leaving behind a curious wolf.

Kurai followed the fox until, at the end of the cave, they came upon a valley. Kurai took in the sight,. Beautiful didn't even describe the scene. There were trees scattered everywhere, and there was a waterfall to the far right of them which ended in a pool of clear water. Kurai looked up, and found that the cliff walls were high a bove them, creating shade that went on for a few feet. Walking into the valley, Kurai had a thought, a thought that would ultimately be very fun. Especially if it involved her, a certain wolf, and a certain blue haired boy. She smiled, a mischievious smile that would make people only able to guess at what she had planned. 'This should prove to be...fun.'

[wolfnin]

Confused, Kirro watched as the two went toward the back of the cave. Curious Kirro followed them, seeing of valley beneath. Tired of playing following Kirro transformed back to normal streaching his muscles. "What is this place...I'm guessin this is that fox's home. Also what's with that smile on your face...why do I have a bad idea about this..." Kirro said looking around him. He wondered what the girl was planning. She had something in mind and Kirro did not want to know what it was. Still he wanted to stay here due to his curiousity.

"I'm going to get myself in a world of trouble, but whatever." Kirro thought. Stepping back Kirro watched the girl waiting to see her next move. Kirro prepared himself to transform back into a wolf just incase of escape or if it was necessary.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Kurai's smile grew and she let out a small laugh. Turner to look at the wolf-boy, she gave him a devilish grin,"Well, since you and that blue-haired boy seem hell-bent on following me, I've decided to....have alittle fun. We will wait for the other, and then we will play alittle game. So, relax and enjoy yourself....while you can. For I promise you, this will be no ordinary game." And with a dark smile in place, she and the fox walked off to the waterfall. Still walking, she turned her head back,"Feel free to go where you like, but stay in sight of the cave. It may not look it, but this place is far more dangerous than you can imagine, whether it be night or day." And with that pleasant little thought, she contiued her way to the waterfall, and let the boy mull that thought around his way for awhile.

[wolfnin]

Kirro stared at the girl confused. He knew she had something in mind, but still he wondered what it was. Kirro decided to look around, to get a feel for the environment. That girl was interesting, yet Kirro knew something was going to happen. "What does she have plan for us. What could be so interesting that would make her have us in suspense." Kirro wondered as he paced around. Turning around he followed the girl. "Alright so you got me thinking, so now what excatly do you have in mind?" Kirro asked.

[Kurai_Tsuki]

Kurai set out a small, disturbing giggle. Turning to the boy she smiled,"All in good time, but first, we must wait for the other. He will be here soon, oh yes, and then all will be clear. So make yourself comfortable and do try not to worry." With that she sat in front of the pool and gazed at at the fall.
