As she spoke, her words seem to echo in his head, as he realized fully what she was referring to. "O-Oh, uhm... Sure. Thank you. The boy smiled gently as he let her hands continue. "My name is Musei Kurama, I recently became a Shinobi..." He muttered quietly, as his eyes looked away from the woman, feeling even more awkward over the fact that he just introduced himself without warning. It wasn't very often that Musei would be speaking to someone, and specifically after nearly knocking them over from him not paying attention, he couldn't help it entirely.

Haki continued her reach as he approved and quietly untied the headband "Your welcome. Nice to meet you, Kurama-san. I'm Hakkin Issetsu. You can call me Haki." she replied, working the headband tight and at a slightly upward angle on his forehead. Once it was secure, she used her fingers to part his hair just below the curve of the back of his head and began to tie the knot. It looped like a braid for a second then she tied the whole thing tightly, stepping back. Using a finger, she tugged and poked at the headband to ensure it didn't fall and, although it slipped a bit, it shouldn't be such a problem "You're new? A genin then. Me too though I've been a genin for a few months." stepping back, she slipped her hands into pockets in her skirt and looked at the crowd passing them "Congrats on becoming a genin."

"H-Haki, I'll remember that..." Musei muttered gently, as he smiled, looking at the woman who congratulated him on his success. "I see... You must be quite experienced then, Haki-sama." Musei bowed his head to her, the headband staying firmly on his forehead, thanks to the girl and her assistance. Not sure of what else to say to the woman, the boy began to blush once more. It was something he wasn't used to, being around someone for so long, but the boy felt as if he could get to know the girl a little better. She seemed like someone that could possibly help him if he needed it.

Haki rubbed her arm uncomfortably "Not...not really. I didn't attend the academy and I'm...still getting used to the village since I wasn't born here." she didn't like that honorific...sama "Just call me Haki, please." looking away at his blush, she moved back into the alley, settling down on a step. Her skirts floated down around her but her ankle high boots showed from under as she crossed her legs "Anyway, what are your specialties?" she asked, resting her hands on her knees as she looked at Musei curiously. Haki's curly gray/purple hair was floating wildly around her shoulders and she used an impatient hand to brush it back, knocking her knuckles against the wall behind her. The move dislodged a lock of hair that hid one horn and the cream colored appendage stood out in comparison. Curled like a rams and set slightly high, Haki's sole full horn was thick and tight, the spiked end curling upward in a second little spiral.

As she asked him to call her just Haki, he nodded his head carefully. "O-Oh, of course, Haki... His words seemed calming almost, as if he had finally began to adjust to speaking with the woman. "S-Specialities? Well... I suppose I would be best with Genjutsu, due to my family name... I've yet to learn any Genjutsu yet, though... I was considering going to do some research on a technique I could use to assist me in the near future..." Musei rambled, as his voice slowly began to trail, as he watched the hand of her push the lock of hair away, exposing the strange horn that was originally hidden. "U-Uhm... H-Haki? Y... You have a horn...?" Musei's voice seemed to whisper, as he slowly moved closer to her, blinking, but turning his eyes away from it, instead looking at her.

Dai hid her hands. Cakes in blood and dirt. She killed again. She sniffled and stopped at an outside cleaning station. She scrubbed her arms, dark red washed into the station and down the drain. Dai sniffled as she scrubbed her arms nearly raw. New nightmares will begin and play with those that replay every night. Killing Sypher, that Shinobi with Kyo, and now this. Her chest hurt, her path was covered in blood and Kein had helped her get there. He turned her into a killer that saw know mercy. Dai rested her hands against the rim of the station and choked on the tears that slipped from her eyes. She was broken and there was no way to track back and save the lives she took. Dai fell to her knees and covered her mouth. This was far from what she wanted in the beginning. She had lost her original purpose into the ninja way of life. ...Sypher? What have I become?... She questioned as she sat there muffing her sobs.
Her hand went to her horn, fingers curving around the swirls for a second as Musei pointed it out "Mmm'hm. I'm an Oni." she said leaning back to stretch her arms above her head. Going back to Musei's specialty, she perked up a bit "Genjutsu, huh. I'm a taijutsu specialist." standing, she slipped a bit to the side, keeping a distance between herself and Musei. It wasn't that she was uncomfortable but some people reacted badly to her horns. Just because he wasn't freaking out now, didn't mean he wouldn't react in a few seconds "Maybe...we could team up? I don't have a team and..." she paused, spotting some seriously blue hair in the crowd "...Musei, can you come with me a second? I think...I see someone I know." she looked at him as she fixed her hair, sliding the bushy curls over the horn and hiding it successfully. With that, she started into the crowd, moving quickly to avoid people and made it to the cleaning station. Seeing the blue haired figure now crouched down, Haki cautiously approached her, one hand hovering over Dai's back without touching "Daitomi-san?" she asked, bent at the waist with concern.

Musei blinked rapidly, somewhat in disbelief. "An Oni...? He muttered, as he slowly moved towards her more, extremely curious as to who she was. "Taijutsu... We could work well together..." Musei started up, but as she soon noticed something, he paused as she began to speak. "Y-Yeah..." Musei replied in response to her question, as he quickly followed after her. Seeing as she reacted to the person, it was obvious to Musei that she knew this person. Musei, for now, stood behind Haki, looking over her to see the woman, somewhat concerned, but keeping silent as to avoid any awkwardness.

Dai's head whirled as the events played. It was getting harder to get a grip on her mind. She looked up at the girl, tears sliding down her face. "H-haki-chan..." She brushed her tears quickly away. She looked up at the girl and sniffled. What could Dai tell such an innocent child? Both where in the same boat. Damaged by the same man. "I..." The Jounin couldn't find the words. "...Haki..." Dai tried to find the words but could not manage to collect her hurts. She looked away from the girl and sighed; the events laid heavy on her. A scolding from Kinpaku's daughter was something Dai wanted at the moment. So the jounin looked at the girl. "I'm happy to know your safe." Dai lend her back. "A lot just happened at once and it got the better of me." She looked at Haki. Kinpaku's sudden leave, the Nibi's tomb being found, and the blood that was spit. Heavily all weighed down on Dai's shoulders. "I...I'll tell you later about it." She whispered to the young Oni. Though Dai knew the young Oni didn't like her much or something it was always hard to tell. Dai knew Haki would only question about it later. The Jounin gripped the cleaning station with her hand and debated on standing. She sniffled and raised from her knees.
She brushed her cheeks and sniffled. The mental pressures had yet to leave Dai, but she looked at the boy trailing behind Haki. "You're a new face." Dai said with a shaky voice. She smiled at the young boy, "I'm Daitomi Imatokai. Everyone calls me Dai for short. I'm Jounin in this village." She bowed her head to the boy.
Haki backed up as Dai stood, being careful not to bump into Musei, her hands going to the pockets of her skirt, not sure what to do. She and Daitomi didn't have the best relationship....in fact, it was horrible. Haki didn't really like Daitomi, not as a friend and not as a person. She couldn't explain why she didn't like her...but right now it didn't matter "Of course...why wouldn't I be safe...?" she asked, confused about the way the conversation was going. While, yes, it had been some time since they'd seen each other, it hadn't been that long. But it seemed like Dai really didn't want to talk about it so Haki just stood back as Dai spoke to Musei "We're talking about teaming up." she explained, moving aside a bit so Dai could look at him properly.

† Daitomi Imatokai † + Paper Ghost + "The better the fighter, the more of a challenge to win."
Dai looked at Haki as she spoke about the two of them teaming up. Dai moved her green eyes upon the boy and smiled. Her smile was a fault of seeing Suiton and Raiton Signatures in her chakra. "You learn a lot from being in a team." She told them. "Any thoughts on whom you'll ask to be your teacher?" Dai asked before looking at Haki. The girl was a little more talkative today for some reason. Their history wasn't the best but for some reason Haki always seemed to find a way to come to Dai for help or questions. Which confused the heck of Dai in the end. The last time Haki asked for help in a Sparring match, Dai ended up hurting her and causing the girl to freak out about the pain. Dai mentally sighed. Haki needed to learn to push pain aside to continue fighting until she couldn't move. This was what made Kumo shinobi tough and hard to beat in combat. She looked at the boy. "Seeing by your chakra, you've just graduated from the academy, yeah?" She asked.
As Musei listened to the two speaking, he let his hands slowly fold in front of him, trying to stay quiet, but when the woman spoke to him, he bowed his head carefully to her. "M-My name is Musei Kurama... And yes, you're correct, I recently just became a Genin..." he replied, making eye contact with the woman, ending up making himself blush. Even from something so simple as talking, or looking in the general direction of someone, Musei seemed to begin getting more and more awkward when it came to socializing. His eyes slowly drifted from the woman for a moment, looking down to his hands. His lips parted, as if he was about to speak, but quickly closed, hoping that Haki would do most of the talking when it came to their conversation.
"Doki-sensei is..." Haki stopped, remembering that Doki was the adviser of the village now. She probably didn't have time to teach Haki. A pang of horrid loneliness struck her but sticking with her new goal, she simply let it wash away from her "Doki-sensei will be too busy advising my mom. I think we need to find a new teacher." she replied solemnly, holding her skirts wrapped around her. She glanced at Musei as the boy introduced himself, seeing the blush and deciding to move off the topic that was him "Daitomi? What's going on?" she asked, her expression one that said she wanted to know. She'd been so lost for the last few weeks, so completely out of the world, that Haki's sense of things going on in the village was shot all to hell.

Dai tried not to smile larger at how awkward the poor boy got. "Not much of a talker, huh, Musei-kun?" She smiled at him. Dai shot a glance at Haki as she brought up Doki. The Jounin looked away quickly. Kinpaku had disappeared leaving poor Doki to take up Raikage status. How was Dai going to tell Haki that? How could she tell her that her own mother vanished without a word. Dai put her hands in her pockets and sighed as Haki asked what was going on. "Alright, both of you should know." Dai closed her eyes and rubbed the back of her neck. "A mysterious mist appeared in Edible Creations. Turned the villagers there into mindless...zombies..." She paused in thought if that was the right word to use. "It was simple. Gather what we could of the mist for testing. But...things went south when we tried to wash it away with suiton." Dai's voice was level as she spoke."Those turned, started attacking us." She wasn't going to tell them that Dai and those involved had killed a few to survive to save the rest of the village. "Some weird Cat persist appeared and made somethings worse for us." Dai then thought of the Nibi being released. "He and his two other brothers, released something that was sealed under that area, long ago." Dai looked at Haki and Musei. "They released the Nibi (two tails) from the place were it was sealed." Dai closed her eyes. "Doki-ch...Doki-sama, arrived and got everyone to work after everything settled. A lot of people died today." Dai took in a deep breath. "Your mother vanished without a word to anyone. Doki was left to take Raikage status until Kinpaku returned." She looked at Haki for a moment. "When Chaos happens serenity will follow. And Doki did what she was taught to do in times like this." Dai took her hands out of her pockets and crossed them under her chest. "We can only look forward and hope for the best." She shrugged. "But I hope your mother chose right in leaving us in such a bad timing." She closed her eyes. "That's what happened." She told them. "I hope you find a teacher." She spoke softly. "I have to go to Doki and see if I can get a team and rebuild the OININ program. We need more Hunters." She looked up and the two. "Any chance you would like to join?" She looked at Haki. "Your mother was once a Hunter." She smiled before thinking about herself and tilting her head to the side. "But...I cannot make a promise that you wont be killing those guilty of crimes." She sighed. "Or even those of innocent blood that have done no wrong." Dai raised her head and looked at the two with strong eyes. "The choice is yours."
As Musei heard her comment about himself not being a talker, he slowly nodded his head in a response to the woman. When she began explaining her story, however, Musei made sure to keep his attention to everything that she was saying. Was it really possible that there were people being brought back from the dead? With the mention of Nibi, Musei blinked slightly. He wasn't fully aware of who or what this Nibi creature was, but from the sounds of what was happening, the two probably shared some sort of link. He bit his lip gently, as he found out about Haki's mother disappearing, which Musei was sure that Haki would not take well. If he had been told the same thing, he would have likely broken down. However, Haki didn't seem like the kind of person to just crumple over so easily from such few words being said. Musei's eyes slowly drifted away, as the woman began speaking to Haki directly. The woman seemed to know quite a lot, which troubled Musei slightly. He was naturally a curious child, and the fact that she just bluntly came out and said everything to Haki, in front of Musei, seemed as if she was somewhat cold, in a sense. The boy's hands slowly began to fiddle in awkwardness, as his lips slowly parted to speak. "M-Ma'am," His voice choked slightly once he spoke, but he didn't hesitate with following up with his question. "I don't believe I'd be much help in any of this currently, however, I'm sure that with some training..." his voice trailed off slowly, as he closed his eyes to relax. "With some training I'm sure I can be of some assistance in finding more about this Mist that you described..." Musei finished, as he looked to Haki, feeling somewhat awkward, due to feeling as if he interrupted their side conversation. The boy's hands slowly drifted away from each other and found a spot at his sides, as he began to relax more, now finished with what he was saying.
