Not long after partings ways with Akira and Suutei did she reach her primary destination after the first checkpoint heading to somewhere farther from the actual hidden village and more like a pit stop sort of place. As she was in a rush to leave the village she couldn't notify them ahead of time so she would drop by unaccounted. She smirked a bit thinking it would be fun to see their reactions, best to keep them on their toes after all. So without a word she blended into the shadows, aided by the dewy mist that surrounded a small insignificant village. It was tired and poor yet it had some traffic going through as it were the most desirable ways for traveler's to pass through. By the time the mist begun to ease and thin into the air, light was peeking through the windows of a tavern, piercing through the flimsy cotton curtains as they fluttered by a soft breeze. Only two men were awake this hour, a larger burly man was taking a cloth and shining the glasses at the bar hearses a skinnier older gent with graying hair and a pair of spectacles framing his green eyes reading a book on a bar stool. The two of them chatted on and off before the latter shivered, setting his book down."Haishi" he called, addressing his companion "Do you feel a sudden chill?" Haishi, for now that is his name, shrugged giving a sarcastic yet somber reply that when weren't it so. However the gent shook his head not buying it and readjusted his glasses before surveying the room with a careful gaze before he had seen the open window. He rubbed the subtle on his chin curiously before stalking over to it, and closed it shut before whispering to him "I could have sworn that window was closed before"
However a darker more sinister chill crept down his spine as two arms draped over his shoulders and a pair of pale pink lips edged his ear "Hadn't we taught you better than that" Frightened the man choked on a yelp of fear and snapped around ready to push them away but she has dissipated like smoke and reappeared on a table. His eyes appraised her figured up her legs to her tiny waist, from her chest to her eyes. He almost didn't recognize her if it were for that devious glint to her eyes nor the sultriness of her voice. With new found fear he straighten up as he realized whom she was, especially when she caught the knife thrown at her neck with two fingers before twirling them in her hand and stabbing it into the table. "It has been awhile hasn't Kurei-san. Though not long enough to forget your manners" it sounded like a joke, a tease yet he knew anger when he saw it. Rubbing his two hands together nervously he told Haishi to make himself scarce. Haishi who had thrown the knife wanted to interject, too bad he the very knife he had thrown was handed right back at him, into his own gullet. With a gurgled cry the man feel to the group choking on his own blood. Kurei held a hand to his own throat imaging it were him who received the sudden demise before a soft gentle had lightly patted his cheek bringing him back to reality.
She left a hour later after getting the documents she needed. She only needed a review of Nozomi's character as far as public goes and her clan. The rest such as the state of Kiri and its territories as well as shinobi to watch out for were given just a quick skim before being sealed away in one of her bandages. While she was processing the information in her hand, making up plans and crushing others she reached the main road leading to kiri. With practiced ease, she seamlessly blended into the crowd of merchants, travelers, and the like not quite sure if she arrived earlier or later than Akira. Suutei she knew for sure had business elsewhere and checked herself into the village. It was far smoother than she expected considering the circumstances but it appeared they were expecting her meaning Akira must have passed through and was already on his way or currently meeting up with Ayakashi. For now she wandered the roads thinking of how she would approach the blonde once she found her. Perhaps that would be sooner than she thought.
