Kokai Tsumi
D-rank
For the moment Kokai would simply sit in his room staring at the calendar nailed to the wall across from him. It was a barren place really. One bed mat with one blanket and one pillow. A single seat at a table. More of an old cushion on the floor. It was on that cushion he sat. Of course there was a fridge and a sink. A single burner stove. It was a very bare minimum apartment. The only thing that stood out was the wall next to the exit. A yellow hoody on a hook, a set of house keys, a leg clasp with three senbon in it, a kunai hanging in its sheath, a tanto (Also put safely in its own) and a giant shuriken. Next to it was a chest with a pad lock on it...hiding his cloak and mask. As for his normal clothes his boots sat on the other side of the door from the weapons and his remaining clothes were in one of two laundry baskets. Clean and dirty. His attention however was on the calendar. A single red circle on a day marked a week from the current day. He would sigh and reach over to his notebook. Grabbing a pen and scribbling down a note upon a blank page.
"Yo, Oki. Promotion reviews are coming up....If you want to meet up with me I will be drinking at the Red Baron in the bazaar in an hour."
With that he tore off the page and rolled it up before attaching the letter to the claw of a messenger hawk. Whispering to it its destination on whom it was to find before letting it out the window. Quietly he got up and moved to the bathroom. Turning the sink handle as it whined before spitting out water. Finally creating a steady stream at room temperature. Without so much as a Sigh Kokai dipped his hands into it feeling the water instantly begin to drop temperature as he splashed it on his face a couple of times. Letting it drain before he moved to the towel and dried himself. Moving back into his room he selected a pair of black jeans and white socks. slipping into them before grabbing a grey tank top. He paused for a moment by his boots as he recalled he needed money. Moving back into the room he would go about finding his wallet under his bed. He opened it and examined the contents before deciding it was just enough to get utterly hammered. So as things usually go he stuffed the wallet into his front right pocket before putting on his boots. His crimson eyes glanced at the yellow hoody before deciding he was good without it. It was sunny out today. Warm even. Hell it was barely passed four. Still his eyes took in his weaponry. He was trained never to go without them. With a sigh he grabbed his headband out of his hoody and tied it around his upper right arm. His Senbon he strapped to his left leg and his Tanto he strapped to his upper right thigh. With that done he moved over and put on his boots before moving out the door and Locking it.
Kokai moved alone through the streets towards the bazaar. It was a short walk since renting was lower near all this noise. People shouted and crowded though anyone too close to him shivered and moved away. Sometimes pulling coats tighter. Once or twice someone looked offended his way but when their gazes met. Blood red eyes to whatever color the other had, they quickly looked away. It was hard to believe he might ever fit into this society. Hardly mattered anyway. His job was to go out and take down anyone the village deemed had to be taken out. They knew that Kokai was trained as an assassin. Still when he stepped through the flap of the bar stand/shack he was somewhat hoping Oki would be there. Seeing at the very least he arrived first Kokai sighed and wondered if the man even felt like meeting him. Squad mate was really a funny term considering their squad leader never actually did anything with the whole squad. Just faded away to Suna before they could accomplish anything. Sure Kokai got a private lesson from him and the two of them got a lecture. However Squad 3 was never truly a squad. Kokai would slip some money onto the counter and order a cold beer before settling at an empty table in the corner furthest from the entrance and sip at it. Wondering to himself if Oki had any reason to show up.
