 The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... "Sorry Ichi." Kirinata said, fiddling with her ponytail. "I'm just.....not into it right now. I've had a hard day and I just want to relax and forget it all." She said, shaking her head then turning to follow Nowe. She wanted nothing to do with being a ninja right now. Ninja's meant death and she didn't want that. She just wanted to be a normal girl. Heck, she'd even left her fans at home.  The tiger that should be....isn't....

"But...I don't have a home. When I passed the genin exam I got kicked out of the academy. I'm not allow to live there. I'm sorry Big brother. I just wanted to get strong enough so that one day I can be like you. I may be taller than you, but, I look up to you," and Ichi made the neccessary handsigns for his Tiny self jutsu and was engulfed in chakra flames as he transformed into his normal looking 4ft nothing version of himself. He then turned and started to walk away.
"And I know you're not really my big brother. I know you don't like it when I call you my brother. I can't help it. You're the closest thing to family I've had since my Dad was killed. The teachers at the academy were just teachers, and although kind, they just didn't feel like family to me. How could they? They were afraid of me. They only took care of me because I had no where to go. I'm sorry Nowe, I really am. But you and Kohane, Kirinata and Zane, You're the only people in this entire village who've seen my true self and not been afraid. You're the only ones who haven't treating me like a demon. You're the only ones, who genuinely showed me any respect as a human being. I'm not trying to make you feel guilty, I just can't seem to do anything right. No matter what I do I just mess up. I even created a form of Taijutsu that should be forbidden. No other souls should have to live with the jutsu I created..." and he walked away slowly.

Nowe sighed, getting a bit annoyed. He's a ninja, finding a place to live isn't that hard. Especially considering we're paid. He thought. There were plenty of academy and genin kids that lived by their self. That was something he'd have to deal with himself. As the mountain came closer into view, Nowe grinned. "Wanna race to the top? I won't even use chakra to climb the wall."

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Kirinata bit her lip but sighed and kept walking. She felt bad for the boy, she really did but that was a bit over dramatic in her opinion. And besides, tonight she just wanted to forget everything to do with being a ninja. She just wanted to be a normal girl for once in her life. No fights, no jutsus, no enemies, nothing. Just a quiet night under the stars.
She smiled slightly, seeing Hokage mountain coming into view. She glanced at Nowe and grinned, unable to resist a challenge. And it was a nice, normal challenge. "You're on. No chakra though!" She said and took off running towards the mountain. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Ichi turned to look at nowe and then at the mountain. "Any conditions I should follow as well?" Ichi asked thinking Nowe had been talking to him with the challenge.

Nowe smiled and began running as well. He could do without chakra. That's where taijutsu training paid off. As he got closer to the mountain, he jumped up to one of the tree's, swinging himself up to get higher.

"Summoning Jutsu" Kohane said again doing the summoning jutsu. This was nearly her thirtieth time to use it while she did it each time it seemed that the slug got a little bigger. Breathing heavily Kohane was on one knee having expended a good deal of chakra as she did her best to slow her breathing.
"Kohane you should rest some" the small slug said to kohane slowly making her way up her body and onto Kohane's shoulder. Glowing green the slug helped to replenish some of Kohane's chakra as well as heal any minor injuries.
"I can't rest yet I still haven't perfected this" she said sitting down and letting herself rest for a little while. "I don't have time to rest if I am to be relied on at all" she muttered thinking about the shadow ninja's attack. All she had been able to do was heal the wounded.

Ichi ended his tiny self jutsu and ran to catch up. He climbed up the rock face sas fast as he could, which turned out to be slow at first. He had trouble coordinating four arms and two legs. Thanks to his new hand shape and foot shape, he was getting more traction, even without using chakra.

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Kirinata took a different path, jumping up the rock face. Like Nowe, she was a heavy taijutsu user as well, her body in peak form. Even without chakra, she was able to jump pretty far. Using her hands and feet, she was making quick work of the mountain, climbing easily. It was more difficult than without chakra, but it was certainly not impossible. There were plenty of hand- and footholds on the rock face. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Nowe continued swinging from tree branch to tree branch. As he ran out of tree's though, he threw his katana into the side of the mountain. He used that to pull himself up, launching to the top of the mountains. However, he slipped up, and almost ended falling off. He did managed to catch himself by his Katana thought, taking a breath of relief. "That probably cost me the race." he said, making his way back up.

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Kirinata made it to the top first, swinging herself up over the edge of the rock face. Hearing the sound of rocks sliding, she glanced over the edge to see Nowe catch himself on the katana. "You know, that was a really stupid move." She commented idly, then reached down to help him up over the edge once he was close enough. The tiger that should be....isn't....

"Well thats why I have you isn't it? So I have someone to talk me out of my really bad idea's." He smiled, gladly taking her hand as he climbed over the edge. He sheathed his weapon and plopped onto the ground, staring up at the stars. "Amazing.."

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Kirinata shook her head, smiling. "You are so lucky you have me." She said playfully. She sat down next to him, leaning back on her hands. "I know." She said softly. "So beautiful. And peaceful." And peace was what she wanted. Here, staring at the stars with her best friend beside her, she could actually believe that she wasn't a monster for killing someone. The tiger that should be....isn't....

Nowe smiled and looked over at her when she commented on how beautiful it looked. "Yeah...beautiful." He then blushed and looked back up at the sky. Pointing a finger at the sky, he began drawing a picture. "You can see some constolations. See?" He asked, naming a few.

The tiger that shouldn't be....is.... Kirinata, staring at the stars, managed to miss Nowe's blush. "Really? She asked, leaning over slightly to see where he was pointing. "Fascinating. I've never been able to really memorize more than the north star and a few others so I can find my way." She watched him trace the constellations, fascinated. The tiger that should be....isn't....
