Role Play - Part 11

Kina looked at him and nodded. "Mmn yeah. I'm hungry."

***

Ao raised an eyebrow. "You said, that if someone killed or hurt someone close to you, you couldn't hate them - because they were only doing what they thought was right and if they apologised, you'd forgive them." He said.

***

Murasaki looked slightly uneasy. "This is really weird.

Rikiya looked around for a place to eat "let try there" he said pointing out a restaurant

***

Tsuna looked at the floor "I don't hate Oni, I just want her to at least try and fix it and if she fails...there's nothing to be done then.." he said quietly

***

Ichimaru kept walking observing the damage done to the city "well..it was recent.."

Kina looked at it. "Alright." She said,

***

Ao nodded. "And I told you, that you were wrong and should hate people." He said. "It hurts a hell lot less when something bad happens."

***

Murasaki sighed. "This is just weird, though..."

They entered as were giving a table to eat and a menu "right lets see what they got.." he said looking through it and at the prices and he pulled a face "Ok..maybe it was a bad idea to come here..I don't have enough for how much i wanna eat.."

***

"I guess.." he said sitting down on the bed

***

Ichimaru took a deep breath "OIE! ANYONE HERE!!" he yelled

Kina rolled her eyes. "Let me." She said.

***

Ao merely shrugged.

***

Murasaki covered her ears. "Woah! Warn me, next time!!" She snapped.

"y-you don't have too" he said quickly and waving his hands in front of him side to side and met in the middle

***

Tsuna sighed and stared at the floor

***

Ichimaru shrugged "that weird..no answer..nothing"

Kina shrugged. "I'm the only member of the organization that gets paid without doing missions - and I don't get to go anywhere to spend it - I can create whatever I want, when I want - so just let me." She said.

***

Ao stood up. "Well..." He said.

***

Murasaki shifted and shuddered. "This is..." She said. "Odd..."

"f-fine.." he mumbled looking through the menu once more

***

Tsuna looked up at Ao "yeah.."

***

"yeah...i get it..shut up!" he snapped

Kina looked through it before putting it back on the table.

***

Ao headed for the door. "I'm going to go check on Ria - and Aiko." He said.

***

Murasaki shrank away slightly. "I'm just nervous, is all..." She had meant to snap at him, but had ended up just mumbling.

Rikiya put the menu down and sighed

The waiter came up to them "so what will it be?" he asked

"I'll have the spicy curry and some milk i guess"

"and you miss?"

***

"I-I'll come" he said standing up

***

Ichimaru sighed they kept walking till they got near the castle - which was more lively then everywhere else. Guards were walking around and inured people were brought to the medics

Kina waved her hand dismissively. "Glass of water." She said.

***

Ao studied him. "You sure?"

***

Murasaki sighed in relief at the first sign of life. "...So much destruction..." She mumbled, watching a wounded person being carried off.

The waiter nodded and left

Rikiya pulled a face "you aren't eating?" he asked with a raised eyebrow

***

"Yeah" he said firmly trying to stay strong

***

"Thats what happens in war" he said as a guard came up to them weapons pointing at them

"What business do you have here" she demanded

Kina shrugged. "I don't really feel like it." She said, curtly.

***

Ao nodded at him and headed down the hall.

***

Murasaki shifted uncomfortably. "I don't like this..." She whispered to him before looking at the guard.

Rikiya sighed at her as their orders came in. He said his thanks and began to eat

***

Tsuna followed behind

***

Ichimaru shrugged at her before looking at the guard.

She got closer and the point of the sword was at Ichimaru's neck "I'll ask again why are you here"

Ichimaru tried to keep a straight face at this action. Normally he'd have started fighting but he knew it wasn't wise

Kina stared at her glass of water.

***

Ao walked into the lab without knocking. "Any improvement?" He asked Ria.

Ria shrugged. "I found out the problem, but it doesn't help us at all." She said.

***

Murasaki put a hand on Ichimaru's shoulder. "We don't want to cause any trouble - we're just... We came to negotiate peace between Konoha and the Snow country - and wish to speak to your leader." She said.

Rikiya finished really quickly and let out a sigh of relief. He watched Kina "you alright?" he asked

***

Tsuna entered the lab behind Ao. He just looked at Ria then at Aiko. His fist clenched

***

She looked at the both of them. She didn't remove her sword from it's place "I wasn't aware that konoha had sent any messengers" she said looking at murasaki

Ichimaru smirked, his blood was boiling for a fight but he kept it under control when murasaki placed her hand on his shoulder

Kina shrugged. "Yeah." She said.

***

"It's similar to when you had the clot, Tsuna - the waves from her brain to her nerves are being interupted - well... They've been cut off altogether - I don't know what I can do..." She said.

***

Murasaki looked at her calmly. "Konoha sent several birds with messages - only to receive no reply. Whether it was the bad weather or lack of acknowledgement on Snow's part, the Hokage saw it fit to send us to deliver a message in person." She said.

Rikiya looked unconvinced but he sighed and leaned back on his chair

The waiter came by and placed their check on the table before leaving

***

"what about that doctor you called to fix me up?" he suggested hopefully

***

She looked at the both of them before sheathing his sword "First, I don't trust this guy" she said pointing at Ichimaru "leave your weapons here" she demanded

Ichimaru groaned as he pulled his sword off his back onto a table and his guns. "there"

She looked unconvinced and patted him down

"wow easy on the goods" he said with a smirk

Once she was sure he had nothing to hide began to walk off

Kina placed the money on the table before standing up.

***

Ria shook his head. "This isn't a medical problem - this is a forbidden jutsu - and since the Snow country waged war on us - the other villages aren't to keen to help us out." She said.

***

Murasaki hit him hard. "Behave." She hissed before following the guard.

Rikiya stood up too "Thanks" he said giving a small smile

***

"Oh.." he said in disappointment. He looked back at Aiko and sighed. He realized something "wait if she died could you bring her back?" he asked looking at Ria again hopefully

***

Ichimaru smirked as he followed

The guard brought them to the main doors to the throne room

Kina smiled at him, awkwardly. "N-No problem..." She said.

***

Ria looked uncertain. "I thought about that..." She said. "Let's say I kill her - and the jutsu isn't undone... There's no bringing her back, after that." She said. "I'm hesitant..."

Ao sighed. "Can't Asdis do anything?"

Ria shook her head. "She had a go - but said it was beyond her." She said.

Ao looked rather distressed at that. "If Asdis can't do it then..."

Ria merely nodded grimly.

"And Kuzuno-?"

"-Flat-out refused."

***

Murasaki brushed imaginary dust off her shoulders and took a deep breath, mentally preparing herself. She forced herself to focus.

Rikiya hesitated for a moment before walking over to her and giving her a kiss on the cheek. He stood up straight after and just smiled at her "right wanna go and see if we can find your clan?" he asked

***

Tsuna sighed "I understand" he said quietly

***

Ichimaru did nothing and just rolled his eyes

The guard opened the doors and they entered the throne room

Kina sighed and began to walk. "...Yeah." She said.

***

Ria pulled him into a hug. "I'll... I'll find a way... Somehow..." She said.

***

Guy who needs a name lets call him Hiroshi was sitting on a throne. Despite not looking thirty, yet, he looked very weak and frail. He glanced at Murasaki and Ichimaru before waving his hand slightly to dismiss the guard.

Murasaki chewed her lip and kept her head down as she walked closer. At first glance, he had reminded her, considerably, of Mizuiro.

Rikiya followed her, he looked up and down the street "so um..does your clan have a sign or something?" he asked

***

Tsuna just gave a half-hearted smile "thanks" he said to her

***

Ichimaru just looked right at the dude with a raised eyebrow "Yo" he said casually to the guy

Kina shrugged. "Just look for odd-coloured hair." She said

***

"I feel as if this is all my fault..." She sighed.

***

Murasaki looked at Ichimaru, horrified. "I apologised deeply for my colleagues out-of-line behaviour." She said, bowing her head.

Hiroshi laughed weakly. "Please... Don't be..." He said. "So... Who am I speaking to?"

Murasaki looked at Hiroshi, and narrowed her eyes. "Here's the deal." She said, firmly. "Konoha will restore peace - however, we see it unfit for any tailed beast to be kept here." She said, and opened her mouth to speak again, but was cut off.

"Right." Hiroshi said. "Ichimaru Kontan and Tatsunoko Mahiro. I wouldn't be the leader of such a large country if I didn't... If I didn't know who you two were." He said, and coughed.

Murasaki took a stance quickly.

Hiroshi shook his head and burst into a coughing fit. "If you can find it... You can have it - I don't want trouble with Akatsuki. I just want the war to end - and if I die Akinori will take over." He said. "The war would continue from thereon." He muttered, dismally. "I lost contact with the soldiers the beast was with - two days ago." He said.
