Enter the Fugitive {Private}

His breath was shaky and heavy. Each step making it harder to go on. What kept him going? Simply the adrenaline. His heart pounded hard and fast in his chest. Like the flapping of a bird's wings. The posture of his running had his torso ahead of his feet making it look like he'd have a hard keeping balance if he stopped. The weight of his body was being used to force his legs to move as fast as he could completely on his feet. His hair was swept behind him with his pure speed and as he took a sharp turn he had to hold out an arm and catch himself, using it as a pivot. His eyes were furrowed yet wide with adrenaline and panic. He needed to get away he needed to hide somewhere.

"Stop! You! Stop!" Voices shouted at him as the sound of footsteps encroached slowly; menacingly behind them. Blurs of movement, staggered breathing. The boy was being gained on.

He looked back and let out a reply, a worry in his voice; a desperation. "I didn't do anything!"

"Then why are you running?" They snarled back at him as if would matter. They didn't seem to stop for breath. Every second was a second closer to him being caught. "You must have a guilty conscious."

"No I just don't wanna go back to jail! I hate it there! They always MAKE me drop the soap!" He whined, stumbling slightly before he lost his footing and completely toppled head under heels. Somersaulting about twice, then rolling, he ended up with his head right at the feet of a woman.

The woman gazed at the man who fell to her feet. A bit much if you asked me but, hey, all in all, someone as to fall for Saze, right? Well, this man fell alright, face plant and all right at her feet. She looked down and then back up at the men chasing after him. With a sudden skid the men came to a screeching halt as their heels dug in to the dirt. Their eyes gazed at the woman and they spoke.

"M-ma'am. That man is a wanted criminal. His name is..."

The man was about to pull a piece of paper out of his pocket when the woman spoke up. Her voice somewhat cold at the thought HE Would be back again. Indeed it was odd that HE would return after the fact that he was branded a criminal. But then again, HE Did miss his bigger sister.

"I'm issuing a full pardon for Mr. Aburame here. All records for this man for this village will be expunged as of now."

Her words were stone cold and the men eyed her oddly. As they saw no doubt in her eyes they nodded and spoke two words before they suddenly disappeared in to the air. Their reigning sadness in the air.

"Hai, Dokukage-sama."

She gazed down at Deivii and smiled under her mask. The markings of a full tribal design laying out and just being all around happy. Her eyes, her purple optics piercing the man's eyes as she would just stand there, waiting for him to get up.

Deivii laid there a moment while he tried to regain his composure. It was obvious he wasn't the most coordinated, the fall having thrust his hood over the back of his head like a blanket. He groaned at the skid marks that probably now plagued his face, his own half-mask on the ground before him. His head lifted, hair falling over his face as he struggled to his hands and knees, a hand reaching and grabbing the mask. The nearly destroyed thing just basically a crappy piece of wood that he used to cover his burn marks. Slipping it back in place he looked up with a sigh of relief. "Uhmm thanks." His voice cracked halfway through his words.

There was a moment of silence as he just realized he'd been pardoned. A sort of furrowed brow and a twist of his lips showed he didn't understand. "Why pardon me? I was already branded guilty, there's no proof I'm innocent." He paused. "N-Not that I'm complaining!" His eyes were wide as he stared up at the woman like she was some kind of merciful God. He simply didn't know what made the change of heart. Then it hit him, the voice was familiar.

"Wai..wait! Are the rumors true? I-Is that you, Sazen?!" He almost jumped to his feet only to sort of stumble from the aftershock of such a long run. Of course now he was ignoring everyone else and simply focused on the woman, a sort of cheesy grin on his face, though sincere it was. The boy's hood had once more fallen to the back of his head, again allowing his hair to nearly shine in the light.

The girl smiled under her mask again and nodded at his last question. Her Kage belt whisking in the wind though, sort of tied on wrong. Barely noticeable and what not. She then motioned for him to follow her, as she walked to the Kage's office.

"It's been a long time Deivii. Perhaps you've missed your home? Oh, and the rumors are true, I'm a Kage now."

Her hands swayed at her sides. She then reached the Door to the building. Reaching to it, she opened it, and allowed him inside. Walking to the top, she entered the office and sat down on her chair. The paperwork piled up and sitting on her desk. Sighing a bit, she started to read and sign papers. Thinking a moment, she snapped her fingers and a small message bird flew through the window.

As it landed on the desk she wrote something on a piece of paper. Tieing it to the bird's ankle she then whispered in it's ear to go out and find a single shinobi for her. With that, she turned to where Deivii would be as the bird flew out the window. Her eyes rested on his and she spoke once more.

"Please sit down Deivii. You are apart of this village now, and you are home among friends, just try not to get in to trouble...hmm...I need Anbu."

She said the last part under her breathe and just watched Deivii and the door.

Deivii looked on with a soft smile and followed as she motioned to. "Actually I missed my sister. I wanted to see how she was doing." With a soft and nervous laugh, he rubbed the back of his head. "Though I guess it is good to see home... though.. it looks a little different. Did they redecorate?" His body moved somewhat slowly but steadily, his eyes locked on her as they entered the kage's office.

A look of awe fell upon the boy's face as he browsed the surroundings. "Nice place.." His eyes returned to her as she whispered words to a bird and tied something to its leg. The bird must've understood because it took off. He shrugged but looked a little wary as he took a seat. Mostly he was afraid of breaking something, after all he did have bad luck. As she spoke of anbu he kind of looked distracted, simply watching her with soft and content eyes. Feeling rude, he looked away once more and tried to find something to talk about. "So uhmm.. how've you been?"

Vincent arrives in front of the building of Kage. As he looks up, one of the windows are open and voices could be heard coming from it. He expects one voice to be of the kage, but the other voice was unfamiliar to him. He enters the building and walks up the stairs leading to the office of the kage. Getting closer and closer the conversation that the kage was having was getting louder and louder.
"This conversation must be serious if it is lasting this long."
Arrivng at the open door leading into the kage's offfice, two figures stand in the room. One the kage and the other an unknown ninja. He knocks on the door, waiting for the kage to acknowledge him present.
And waits to be invited in.

The girl smiled under her mask and nodded, her voice soft and nicely spoken yet still showing her regal stature. Her hands moved across the desk and rested on some paper work she needed to accomplish soon. Her purple hued optics focussed on the door, and Deivii.

"Yes, well I missed my brother too actually. I was thinking of you before, wondering how you were doing."

She heard the knock and nodded, waving her hand to show they could come in, and as she did she spoke in the same tone as what she used as talking to Deivii. Her hands, head, and eyes searched for a scroll she had placed on or in her desk she couldn't quite find. She was puzzled a moment, and finally realized that it was in the second drawer of her desk. Feeling a tad bit foolish she giggled a tiny but, which was unusual for her.

"Ah, Mr. Nightray, I assume you got my message. Well, I was thinking, it's hard to keep up with things here, seeing as we just rebuilt the village and all. Perhaps you wouldn't mind if I formed a team. These two Genin I asked you to bring and yourself. I have plans for you Mr. Nightray, somewhat dangerous but necessary all the same. I'm making you a team leader, you may chose one more genin if you wish, that's up to you. Details of this team are your discretion as well.

However, there are two missions I need you to complete. Should you accept them, you will be permanently bound to this team for the duration. All of you have a choice. I'll tell you this much however, If you succeed in what I set forth, all three of you will be promoted to ANBU when the time comes.

Essentially, I am going to train you all to become Dokugakure's very own Special Force. You will take orders from ME alone. You will however, be completely erased from all of Dokugakure's records, files saved but publicly, you will no longer be alive and would have died honorably saving our village. Again, there is one catch. I want the not so famous Fushoo to hold it's own. The ANBU Team Leaders will be Fushoo, which means you will too, Mr. Nightray."

Deivii blushed lightly and rubbed the back of his head nervously once more. It was slightly uncomfortable knowing he had once been banished from the village and come time when everyone returned whether or not his record was expunged didn't matter he still knew their looks would be those of hatred and distrust. With a soft laugh of nervousness he glanced to the door where he heard knocking and a light sound of voices. From what he could here it was all men, how many he didn't know after all, Deivii was no sensor.

His gold eyes watched with gentle curiosity as the boys would enter. Taking in their appearances a moment he turned his head back to Saze, shifting beneath his cloak. He was silent as she spoke, unsure what to say, really. This wasn't really anything to do with him so he decided the best way to keep from any sort of trouble was to keep his mouth shut. However he did manage a weak wave before his back was turned once more. Not the cold shoulder, but simply a gesture of 'hello I'm not going to invade business that isn't my own'.

It was a second longer before he finally realized what she was talking about when she said she needed ANBU. In a sense Deivii looked proud of himself, though in actuality he probably shouldn't have been because once Saze had explained it, well it didn't take some sort of Einstein to understand what she meant. Nonetheless Deivii felt proud and a moment of looking at him showed a sort of glow of pride and happiness.

When the word Fushoo was spoken, Nightray could not believe what was being said.
"The idea of me training the two genins i brought are fine, but when you said the word Fushoo is where you lost me. Fushoo is nothing more than a mere legend, a fairy tale."
Nightray walks to a window near by, looking through the stainless glass. The view was so clear. Could it be that the world was not so black and white, but there is also a little grey. Could there some truth to the rumors and legends about Fushoo? Interested and wanting to know more Nightray agrees to the task assigned by his kage.
"What would you have me do?"
Even with this choice, he becomes cautious, something was out of proportion.

OOC: Posting order; Saze, Deivii, Nightray, Z, and then Irie

The girl didn't move and didn't stand up either. She just kept her eyes down a bit and let everyone talk. Finally she did look up at Shikaru and Irie. Not doing much, she then turned to Deivii and smiled a bit under her mask. Turning back to the desk, she wondered if this was all a good idea. Maybe not some of it, but most of it was. She thought to herself about how the Bijuu had made their stand on the Hive. It was clear the Bijuu were on the opposite side, right? She suddenly stood up and spoke out to everyone in the room, but Directed it to Nightray.

"Mr. Nightray, even you should know that the world is not all black and white. Some things, aren't even grey."

She paused a moment and looked at the Genin.

"All Fairy tails, myths, and legends are derived from truth, are they not...Mr. Nightray?"

She asked as she pulled out a large book from under her desk. Letting it drop on to the desk, it made a large bank noise. Pushing it over to the Genin, she nodded for them to read it and take in it's information. It was a book entitled "Fairy tales" and the very first one, was about the Yakan and the Fushoo, and of course the Bijuu.

"Tell me, Mr. Nightray. Back when we believed the Bijuu to be Fairy Tales, did we not find out they were real as well?"

She shifted and turned to the open window, gazing out of it. The poison land seeming to grow more and more like death and killing. Her eyes scanned the area as people swarmed the streets, gathering houses and what not. SHe wondered, if it was all worth it still.

"Perhaps, it would be time that the world should know. Mr. Nightray, I want you to go to Yukigakure and talk with the Kage first. Tell him...Tell him the Fushoo wish to talk with him, Get your team ready to move out at once. However, before you leave...Please send me a message, and wait for me here."

She said as she pulled out a small piece of paper and handed it to him. The paper read:

Yellow Valley

With that she stared out the window, and waited.

Deivii seemed uncomfortable through the whole conversatiion. More than likely he felt out of place. After all he HAD just rejoined Konoha.. no he joined Doku. This was no longer the land that had banished him. His eyes were distant though with Saze around he felt a teeny bit better. A sort of awkward grin on his face he managed to relax. His eyes sat on the ceiling as he awaited to be addressed. This wasn't about him so he'd stay out of it. After all his nosiness ended up getting him in the situations he had to start with. For once he decided to be wise.

Receiving the note, Vincent saw that the note had two words on it "Yellow Valley"
The word or place was not familiar to him and so he passes the note to Z and Irie to let them know of the note. But what his kage was true, all legends, myths, tales, are derived from some truth. He turns to the kage as she faces the window." Excuse me Kage-san, but where is Yellow Valley? I am not familiar with this, but i am guessing that this is the place that you are going to send us to and if it is we are going to need more information."

The girl nodded at Irie and laughed a bit. The girl looked outside the window and wondered, if this would be a good idea or not. It'd be a bad idea if it happened to be more of a challenge than she wanted. But it'd be good because everything would happen nicely and with some extra experience, but something felt wrong with her. It sort of felt like something evil and demented was coming, maybe.

"That is correct. Perhaps we should meet there. It's secluded and what not. Everyone in this room is allowed to be a witness of the ritual, however, I would prefer to meet with Mr. Nightray alone for it. A spectacle isn't exactly what we need."

She moved to sit down and placed her hands on the table. As she waited, she nodded for them to prepare for everything.

"The ritual and training will be first, before you leave for Yuki. So everyone train as much as possible, I will take you under my wing for a small time Mr. Nightray, to show you things you never believed possible for a human."

Deivii wasn't paying attention now. Shocker right? Naw it wasn't all that surprising. Deivii was just short of having ADD. His eyes were focused on the ceiling, his body shifting to pull his hood up. He didn't like people seeing what he looked like. His lips twitched slightly. This was so pointless to him. Why was he here again? Oh yeah.. he was here to visit Saze. Naturally she was popular now. Deivii had been popular, but he was glad that no longer applied. Being a fugitive was some stupid shit. His mind sort of zoned as he thought about everything that happened. The weirdest was something he didn't dare think. His tongue ran across his tongue as he pulled his hands behind his head and then kicked up his feet onto the desk. He wasn't being rude intentionally, just off in Deivii's wonderland.

With everyone leaving, things were getting awkward. At first it was all about the nervousness but then it was about anxiety. He wanted to see the powers of the Fushoo. Vincent wanted to gain power in order to kill his father. Even though Vincent has no information on him, he wanted to be prepared for anything. "So Dogukage, I am anxious to see the powers of the Fushoo. I am wanting to open my mind." He puts his arms together and watches as the kage demonstrates her powers. Fushoo powers.

((Alright, I've sort of got some tihngs to get done, so I'll be back later to talk to Night and stuff. but I've gotta go right now from this topic lawl sorry guys.))

The girl shifted her body and remembered something, she had to meet with that odd girl that was here. Her body shifted once more and she basicalyl darted outside the door. Her hands moving in rhythm with her legs as he kept her head focused on what was to do. Not only that, she feared that if the Bijuu were able to be disguised, they could already be here among her people. That, would be bad for all of them.

{{Exit}}

Deivii blinked and came to his senses. His gold eyes on Saze as she suddenly decided to leave. She had something more important to tend too. Well Deivii did have a reason to be here. Pushing to his feet and rocking on his heels a moment he grinned at the others before giving a salute. His body moved, long legs taking long strides and carrying him after Saze. He had dismissed himself from this conversation as well. "Sis, wait up!" He called out, following closely. Something naturally was off about the boy. What was it today? Who could be sure, he just seemed, abnormal, not as clueless as usual.

[exit]

With everyone leaving, he thought it was time for him to leave as well. There were a lot of things left to be done in his new apartment, and so he left a note stating that he will be at his apartment for if the kage returns and needs him once more.
"Yo Irie and Z, take the day off today. Since the kage left without giving us mission, there really isnt much to do. So ill see you guys later and is something does come up again, ill just send you a bird. Peace"
