1 Camped Out in the Wilderness [Private/Tsuneo/NK] Fri Nov 04, 2016 9:38 pm
Kashizudoto
S-rank
As two genin had spotted him receiving a letter from Hawky and proceeding to burn it after reading it, falsely accused him of being a spy, and called upon the nearby guards to attempt to arrest him before he and his hawk had been able to physically restrain them (really, the engagement was a matter of seconds and although Kashizudoto could have easily killed or maimed them to shut them up before one of them could let out a squeal, he believed that such a thing was contrary to his purpose of peace in the village), the tokubetsu jonin had gotten away from the scene and decided that it would be best to simply lay low beyond the borders of the village of Kumo in anticipation of the war. Besides, the physical engagement that had ensued between the two parties earlier had probably led to a manhunt for a boy in a black robe by now, and, although there was nothing wrong or incriminating about what he had done, he preferred NOT to get stuck in Athos Keep and deal with Kumo's authorities to clear up the whole misunderstanding. Besides, he had no business within the borders of the village anyway; he had intended to go here originally to observe what the battlefield truly looks like and that was just what he planned to do during his time here.
Any tracker ninja sent to go after Kashizudoto would not have many clues to go off of, as they would only know whatever basic details about his appearance, such as the color and pattern of his robe and the color and texture of his hair, that the genin who had confronted him had provided. Besides, by now, he, with his messenger hawk dubbed "Hawky" perched on his shoulder, had traveled thousands of meters away from the village's borders by now and had gotten pretty deep into the Wilderness, well past the typical ANBU sensory range. With resources being diverted towards the war, he doubted that any of the ANBU would be sent to hunt the boy outside of the village itself, especially considering that they could only suspect him, not pin down any real blame on him for anything other than self-defense. Still, the boy found it inconvenient that, at least until the Kiri-Kumo war ended, he couldn't really go to the village with an assurance of safety.
He and Hawky had set up camp out in one of the lower-lying areas of the relatively mountainous region known as the Land of Lightning; he did not enjoy high altitudes in the slightest, so he found it refreshing to sleep out at a normal attitude where his ears wouldn't pop like crazy (damn, that always hurt). Out here, he wouldn't have too much to worry about concerning the ANBU who were looking out for him based on a false claim of being a "spy", and he and Hawky could simply gaze at the stars tonight and drift to sleep so that they could awaken and train for days on end until they could hear the invasion forces of Kiri coming, after which Kashizudoto had determined to go in and spectate as a neutral bystander and nothing more. Of course, the actual invasion would probably be a while away, so he and Hawky would have plenty of time to train. Perhaps tonight, a wandering person would spot their campsite out in the valley to observe a boy and his hawk just about ready to sleep under the stars. Only time would tell.
