The Chuunin Exams had collected an array of shinobi from far and wide whether they were hostile or not was another question but as it stood it seemed that though these festivals were supposed to promote a friendly rivalry there always held some event or major catastrophe that seemed to happen. Hopefully it wouldn't this year but who knew, when it came to the shinobi world anything from ninja aliens to kung fu emus were all possibilities and Xiao was exactly one of these oddities. A boy who became a spider who became a boy, born from a summon animal and a foreign knight and sired by a fluffy spider sage that he had never met. He was a contradiction but despite this he carried with him a deep hope not only for the safety of all those around him but the world would never lose it's strange way of being. He'd been walking through Shinwato before the exams themselves, it would be a while until they knew exactly who they were fighting and even when the time came Xiao didn't truly care much just who it was at all. He didn't have any intention of winning, nor was he even here to do that at all, if anything he felt he needed quite a lot of training to become a Chuunin and deep down felt he hadn't reached the level he wished he was at just yet.
With the Ice Princess and the Web Princess as his adoptive mothers and a tendency to find himself in compromising positions the little Spider shinobi found peace in this crowded isolation. Surrounded by many and yet feeling as if the only person on earth as he walked down the streets examining folk that walked on by wondering what their stories were, what their experiences were, the entire world all filled with little chakra souls that each held desires, hates, loves and a variety of other such things. It was something Xiao thought about often, The Web of Life that connected every shinobi on earth all bound to their strands and fate but all connected as one. Purchasing a firework pinwheel, some firework bumblebees and a few smaller flasher fireworks as well as a candy floss from a local vendor he made his way to a small waterfront garden watching the candy floss flop in the wind reminding him much of Chigetsu's own hair. He smiled faintly as he observed it's wavering thinking on how the hunter nin must be feeling right now or if he had decided to attend at all.
Finding a large stone seat near a willow tree, a gentle fishing spot or so it seemed the shinobi sat cross legged and drew his Guqin. He hadn't played in a while, not since what happened to his parents by the hands of Samuru and Haka Osada. He was, by all sense of the word, an orphan now and though that pained him what harmed him more was that those who had killed his parents he would count as his close friends. It was a fishing spot, and thus Xiao opted to play something to do with fishing wavering his fingers over the steel strings as he played watching the water thinking over the past year. Slaying bandits with Sachihiro, His mothers death and last words that with great power came great responsibility, His fathers by the hands of his friend Samuru, his discovery of his spider like blood, the brutal training of Haka Osada...All leading to this moment on his strand of the Web of Life. He knew he was immature and unlike other shinobi. He wasn't dark or brooding, he wasn't powerful or proud, he was a jester who was blessed with webs. He didn't know why he was here or when he would have to truly grow up but right now he was simply in the moment playing his guqin and admiring the water.
