Ayame took each headband in turn, she held them to her chest saying a silent prayer to anyone that was listening. "All of you be safe." She then looked at Karuto and Sadayo, "If you would both follow me to the academy." She said placing the headbands in her pocket as she walked away with Daichi at her side.

Her eyes shifted to the hand upon her shoulder with an icy glare. The level of familiarity displayed by the gesture was not one that she liked. Still the idea that he would miss her was, something. What she did not know. Did he genuinely wish to spend more time with her already? Or was it simply an expected thing to say. She was unsure and because of that, distrustful. "While I would prefer for others to take care of me, that has never been my luxury. Perhaps someday I will possess someone who can do that for me. Until then Nozuki and I will survive on our own."
When they boy stepped back to make his joke her gaze followed him. "Should I be concerned for my well being? The idea of traveling with three boys did cross my mind." Due to the lack of expression she always exhibited it was probably pretty hard to tell what exactly she was implying or even how seriously she was implying it. Sadly Karuto would not get much more time to learn how to read her as the Kazekage was ready to test him now. "Can you read script? I may write you while I am gone if only so that you do not worry needlessly."
As the team started to disperse, the young lady informed him she had no family. Instantly his smile faded as he let out a light sigh. He knew that feeling well. When he first arrived in the village he was alone too. Giving her a light nod he spoke up,"Yea, you can come hang out with me. I am sure Sonyo wouldn't mind. I'll cook up something for dinner and your free to stay the night if you would like." Giving a gesture to Karuto he smiled,"Hell blondie can come too if he likes."

> Iron resiliency: The user has gone through tough enough training, being roughed up and moved around in armor to understand what it feels like. The user's fortitude is mildly increased. > Iron Disciple: The user, through hours of intense training in multiple bad scenarios, has learned the old saying of “to kill with one punch.” Because they do not want to find themselves outnumbered, or maybe for pure enjoyment sake, the user is able to hit with great intensity when striking a foe, focusing on tension, grounding, stability, and strength at the impact sight. The user's striking strength is mildly increased. > Swift Foot: A well trained individual is usually faster than an untrained individual, and the practitioners of the Iron Fist understand this fact more than anyone. However, those of the Iron fist not only accomplish this boost of speed….they also do it in armor! The user is now unaffected by the additional weight of armor (to a logical limit), and when the user is out of armor, their body and technique speed is greatly increased at the loss of the protection. They are much more adept at bursting into action, going from standing to 100% in single moments. Conversely, the user can now perform these techniques without needing armor. Must relearn every technique at half the learning cost to perform techniques without armor to learn the different distances and timing of the techniques. Overrides restriction. > True Belief: The user has meditated and trained long enough in this monk art to understand how important true belief is. By understanding the power of the spirit over the mind, and the mind over the body, the user has increased their stamina by sheer will power alone, as well as increased their toughness and durability. Increases Stamina by +25 for every style mastered. > Satori [ Enlightenment ]: Meditation and spiritual exploration and understand yields interesting results. Due to the greater understanding of the self, the user is more aware of the connection between their mind, body and spirit, and how to utilize that connection. The user is now slightly more skilled at just about everything. Striking, blocking, moving, absorbing, and taking damage. The user's strength and fortitude is increased heavily. > Offensive Style: Knife Stances: The user becomes more accustomed to upward, downward, and sideways slashing motions. Speed of all Bukijutsu employing small arms is mildly increased. > Offensive Style: Simple Play: With this training, the user is able to more comfortably switch between upward, downward, and sideways slashing motions in a pinch. The user's reflexes are mildly increased. > Trick Style: Knife Toss: The practitioner has developed a greater sense of precision and is now able to throw, juggle, and catch their knives by the hilt with ease. Confers a slight reflex bonus to the practitioner. > Offensive Style: Artless Draw: The practitioner has better developed their ability to pull their blade straight from its resting place to an offensive slash. Slightly increases the speed of strikes made when drawing a small weapon. > Trick Style: Retreating Feet: The practitioner, already acquainted with many techniques in the style, has finally realized that with a little bit of personal training, they are able to increase the precision and speed at which they lift and press their feet. The practitioner's footsteps are rendered silent to all who do not have enhanced hearing, and the footsteps they leave in soft ground are shallow. This not only assists their ability to sneak up on people faster and quieter, but also helps when running from trackers. > Trick Style: Blade’s Edge: The practitioner has developed an even greater sense of precision and is now able to throw, juggle, and catch their knives by the tip with ease. Additionally, some projectiles, such as shuriken or kunai, can be caught by their tip. Confers a slight increase to the user's reflexes. > Offensive Style: Stepless: The practitioner has become so used to performing quick and silent steps that they scarcely realize that they themselves are moving. The user's speed and reflexes are mildly boosted. > Offensive Style: Mistborn Stepping: Silent, swift, and sharp. The practitioner is able to creep about at a decent pace while making close to zero noise. While moving through an area where cover or some obscuring factor is present (buildings, people, fog, etc.), the practitioner gains a moderate bonus to speed and reflex. > Skill: Multitasking: While the first two stages of the style revolve around the very basics of how to use a bow, the third stage incorporates the use multiple arrows into a more stylish way of battling. Mastery allows the user to simultaneously fire multiple arrows with any technique that does not specifically state otherwise, and allows the Arrow Creation technique to create up to three arrows at once with no increase in cost. > Skill: Manipulation: Manipulating the bow itself is simple, but controlling the arrows is very difficult. Many enhancements can be made to arrows to give them different flight paths, but buying those kinds of arrows is expensive and making them is difficult, so a method was developed wherein the user can freely alter how an arrow flies without need for such trifles. During this training, the user practices firing arrows with abnormal hand positions. Reduces the Stamina cost of bow-related Bukijutsu techniques (including Formless Styles) by 10 Stamina, to a minimum of 5 Stamina. > Skill: Adaptability: For the most part, the style thus far has focused on techniques to be used while stationary. However, this leads to many problems when fighting alone in situations that demand frequent movement. During this training exercise, the practitioner is to practice all known techniques while running, jumping, and maneuvering across a battlefield. After mastery, the user can align shots even while running and jumping.

Karuto nodded as Katsumi spoke. Wait...did she just ask if he could read? Turning a little red in the face, he replied back "Yes, I can read. The academy doesn't let illiteracy slide.." Hearing the white haired man's offer for Karuto to join, he seemed to ponder it for a moment before shaking his head "Nah. Not my style" Turning back to Katsumi, he resumed speaking "Anyways, try to enjoy yourself. Write when you get the chance. Until I see you again, take care Katsumi!" With a cheerful expression, he took off after the Kazekage. He absolutely could not be late for his exam after all

The name Sonyo meant very little to Katsumi, she assumed the person was his partner or roommate. Still it would be nice to not have to cook for herself for the night. At the mention of Karuto coming she seemed to twitch somewhat. Why? Well who could really say. Besides he was too busy chasing after his promotion test to accept such an offer anyway. So at least she didn't need to worry about another awkward dinner with the man. Still it might have been enjoyable to see more of his bashful side. Seeing him blush was cute, it helped to paint a very different picture of the giant within her mind. "Of course, until we meet again." With that she looked to Nariomi with her typical blank faced stare. "Shall we adjourn to your abode then?" [Katsumi & Nozuki exit on Nari leaving]
Let out a light chuckle as the man turned down his offer,"Your loss friend, I make delicious shrimp and steak ramen." With a wave of his hand he motioned for Katsumi to follow along.

Ayame could barely contain her anger and sadness as she walked on to the grounds of her home. Sonyo, gone. The girl whom she had loved like a daughter. There girl whom just as she had once said was the embodiment of life. A bright spot in an other wise dark world, that seemed to produce enemy after enemy; no matter how many they took out. Ayame picked up her pace as she heard Daichi enter behind her and when she finally made it to the outdoor dojo on their grounds, she released her chakra. Multihued blue lightning seemed to pour from every pore. She let it wrap around her fist before heading to a dummy and pummeling it. Why didn't she just come home!? punch She should have just come back here. We could have helped. punch She should have walked through your doors, this morning. Gripping a dummy by the makeshift neck she decapitated it with her claws. Before it dropped to the ground she used her reflexes to spin kick it into the side of the house. She yelled at it as it barely put a dent in her home. Daichi looked on with a sad expression on his face and he whined. He would make sure Ayame wouldn't hurt to much more of the house, but he could understand her anger. She needed to deal with it in her own way.

James strode up to the house and listened to the sound of his loves beating heart as she tore into the training dummy with enough force to rattle the walls. His own grief and pain was present, but James had dealt with death so much and seen so many of his own friends and mentors and students die or disappear in the line of duty that it wasn't a stranger to him to feel this on a given day. James had one purpose. making sure his family and his village survived, but Ayame had so much more responsibility. So much more to do and and all the hard choices to make. James was a weapon and a healer, but He was aimed by Ayame's guiding hands and the hands that bore the weapon carried its killing weight.
He walked up behind her, drumming on his thigh armor plates lighty to makes sure and not startle Daichi as he walked up to the battle scarred wolf and stroked his fur softly behind the massive beast head.
"We all make our choice for our end My Love."
He called to his mate.
"You have to give that choice to Sonyo just like I had to give it to Sanshi, Howaido, Lucas, and Akane. Just like you already did with so many others."
He watched her with his ice blue eyes, his expression calm and somber, his ice headband twisting itself into the shapes of warriors in battle.
"You know that Suna nin don't run from a fight. Not in my lifetime and not ever. We didn't run from Lord Jashin, We didn't run from bandits or the UHV. We fight and we win and sometimes we die. Suna nin do a lot of things. Live, Love, Burn, and Die, but the only running we do is into the fray and not from it."
Daichi watched his tamer and gave a small whine at James's touch. He didn't speak, knowing his tamer needed to hear her mate's words. Inside though he was worried for her. She'd had so much put on to her shoulders and she cared deeply, too most that was a weakness, Daichi saw it as strength. Ayame heard James speak before she punted a dummy head over the walls of their home. She looked back over her shoulder at James tears escaping from her eyes, She was life James. She was everything I could have hoped for in any of our Suna nin. she looked down at her hands as her lightning danced across her skin. I've defended this village, I've defended it's people, I've killed for this village to keep it safe. And yet I'm the only Kazekage that has lost 75% of this village. She turned to face James completely Now I add another name to that ever growing list, and this time it's someone who wasn't just a Suna nin but like a daughter to me. Her green blue eyes wavered from her mate. How could he be near her when she'd caused so much pain for others? I know it wasn't in her nature to run from it, it's just how anyone from Suna is. Sometimes, just sometimes I wish our nin didn't have to face so much. But it comes with the territory right? Once you decide to become a shinobi you never know which mission will be your last. She wrapped her arms around herself, I just wish she would have come to us for help. Ayame looked around at what she had done and sighed, I....I know this is a show of weakness. I just needed to get the anger and sadness out. I almost bit the head off a genin earlier.

"Our village. Not just your village."
James approached her and wrapped her up in his arms. "Suna itself may have had its worst losses, but I was there when Rouran and Saraswati where reduced to rubble and almost 100% of its population was washed in salt water or blood. those disasters where under the Boss or Lady Bast and they were just as horrendous.
James leaned down to kiss her gently and run his cold hands through her hair.
"We have faced extinction four separate times since I earned my headband. Those people didn't die because of your or us, that 75% wold have been 100% if we didn't act. We have made mistakes before, and will again, but stop trying to find failure in victory."
Ayame let James take her in his arms, she growled only a bit in protest, before settling I know love, I know. She kissed him back then nuzzled her head under his chin. Why do you have to make sense? She said as Daichi walked up and licked James on the side of his face. Thank you for that....guess I'll need to get the golems to clean this up...and have new dummies made. She looked up at James instead of at the destruction she had caused, I need a shower before I head back to the office or the academy. I want to check on Theo and Moana. She smiled up at him, Wanna join me?

"Honey, if you ask me that question, and the answer is ever no, then I want you to hit me with a Yellow Dragon on the spot.
James patted Daichi on the head in a half loving and half soaked manner. He whiped the rapidly freezing slobber from his face, using his power to manipulate the liquid away.
Ayame smiled and laughed at the slobber that froze on his cheek. She then grabbed his hand and pulled him toward the house. Just help me forget the outside for a while. She said patting Daichi on the way in. As she looked through her things she didn't see the scroll for the snakes. She growled and poofed to the island taking Daichi with her.
Daichi gave a small sneeze and watched his tamer and her mate walk into the house as he lay in the yard. He looked up at the clear sky above his village before sending up a mournful howl. Sonyo had actually liked spending time with him no matter how terrifying he looked. He would miss the pup.

Some time later James lay in his boxers across the bed he and Ayame shared. He ran his hands through her long hair, his control over water and ice allowing him to dry ger hair in a way unmatched by any blpwdryer or towel.
" I could freeze beads into your hair that would not melt in the Suna sun and would keep you cool."
Ayame poofed back during the shower not scaring James one bit and Daichi managed to poof back into the yard.
Ayame looked down James as they lay on the bed, if she was a cat she would have been purring. The man had magic hands. I would like that. I tend to stay pretty cool, but yes I would like that. she said tracing one of the many scars on his chest and arms. She yawned and looked toward her closet. I need to go put on my best kimono and handle Sonyo's funeral and such. she sighed and let her head fall to his chest Be the Kazekage they said, it'll be fun they said.
