The morning was humid as Kenji strolled through the Chikara compound. It was always peaceful around the early hours. Kenji greeted the few familiar faces that were scattered around; a few folks tending to the crops and others at the market getting their shopping out of the way early. As the Genjutsu master waved and spoke he began to fully discern the difference of how he was currently treated in relation to how he used to be addressed. Kenji wasn’t a complete fool, he knew with strength came respect, now that Kenji was considerably more powerful a shinobi than he was as a child, which was to be expected, people treated him differently. Most people assumed such a rebellious and troublesome child would never fit in the structure of the clan, not to mention become a successful ninja. Kenji was well regarded amongst the villagers and was always one of the top names the Raikage referred to when an important mission was brought to her attention. Some customers outwardly demanded that Kenji be the one to take the mission. Over the years Kenji has just been a blip of the drastic military transformation of Kumogakure. The village hidden among the clouds has recently been host to some of the most feared and formidable shinobi the ninja world could produce. This was also turbulent times, nothing like what Kenji’s and other’s ancestors had endured with the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th shinobi world wars but alertness was still a necessity. Therefore, whenever an issue of security arose Kumogakure shinobi were the first on the list to be contracted.
Kenji never dwelled too much on those issues, as the time he would leave the cloud village was looming. He never felt better about his decision. He would do anything to be fully reunited with his love, Latika. Never did the blue hair fellow take himself for a romantic but he did take himself as loyal. Latika and he trusted and protected each other, and it was now his duty to preserve that. Like he told her and Ebull, there were things in the cloud village that he had to accomplish before he could make it official and rejoin Latika. Kenji never felt any real obligation to Kumogakure, he had only lived in the village for a little over 6 years, other than that he lived in the wilderness isolated from the shinobi world. His clan ostracized him at an early age, so only his father, uncle, and mother compelled him to stay. Yes, he had forged many bonds since his stay, but it was merely a season. In time everything changes, and his time to embark on a new journey was upon him.
It was fascinating to Kenji how one observation could spawn a train of thought that nearly bears no resemblance to what caused the thought; the power of association he proposed. He was now but a few miles out from where he was to meet his father so he could teach him the way of the bow, archery.
