Rin chuckled at the barrage of questions Hitmoi had thrown at her as she was delighted to have another curious soul in her presence. "Well let's see. To be honest, lately, life here hasn't been anything other than hard work really. Considering the destruction the village had to suffer due to the recent attack, everyone has been hard at work rebuilding it since then. And I'm pretty sure the village also looks similar too yours now, for the same reason. This is one of the few places that had survived and still has some trees that hadn't been uprooted. As for notable places to visit, well I'm sure you've already seen the great hokage monuments, also know as the Hokage Rock. Then only other noteworthy places to visit that have survived the assault would be the Memorial Stone. It happens to be near the training ground we're heading too so we could check it out after we're done with our training if you want to." They were starting to get close to the training grounds and the sound of combat began echoing through the woods. In the meantime Rin also decided to take Hitmoi up on her offer to ask her own questions. She had to satisfy at least some of her curiosity after all. "Hey, you said you came here with your brother, right? What's he like?"

Lexx thought back to the few news he'd seen about his own actions. The murders he had committed. Some people in various forums had began using a nickname for the perpetrator. For him.

"Well, apparently, people are starting to call me 'The Black Mist Assassin'. How silly. And long." He said with a serious face looking in front of him at nothing in particular. He then took a bite from his slice of pizza before continuing. "Just call me Lexx."

"So . . . Ved, before we continue our previous conversation, you should learn something first." Black dust surrounded his left arm and took the shape of a long blade he held in his hand which he swung violently just stopping at a hair's breadth of Ved's throat. He stood there for a moment in silence and took another bite from his pizza slice. "We barely talked for a minute and you already trust me enough to meet me in person? What if I was someone grateful to the people who did this because of my new-found powers? And you? You basically stated publicly you are against the people who did this. If we are to work together, I need you alive. And meeting strangers like this, especially ones with powers like these, is . . .", he paused for added drama ". . .bad for your health." Either all what Lexx said was true and Ved was too trustworthy, or he had dangerous powers with which he could defend himself. If the latter was true, Lexx would hope he'd showcase it as he was curious too see them. If the former was true Lexx could only hope he had learned his lesson.

Lexx let go of the blade and it disintegrated into black dust before vanishing. "Now. The organization you were speaking of. As I recall my last question was about it's intentions. Oh, and I'm also curious about how many people have joined it already."

@Amelian Draco No worries dude, just wanted to avoid confusion and such.

@Amelian Draco Y'know it might be easier if you just changed the CS and named your guy Jason instead of John. xD

If the pizza he brought with him wasn’t a dead give-away his voice certainly was. He immediately recognized the voice as the one he had spoken to after he had taken the voice modulator off back in Grayshire on the video stream. “I was starting to think you wouldn’t show up.” Lexx said as the man sat down next to him. Lexx then shook his head and grinned at the suggestion. Not cause he refused a slice but because the man really showed up with a pizza. “I didn’t really expect you to actually bring a pizza. Sure I’ll have a slice.” Still, even simplest acts like this tell a lot about a person. If this is hinting at anything, it’s that the ‘masked man’ is dependable. Atleast I would hope so, Lexx thought.

“So what should I call you? Other than Mr. Anonymous.” As he said that Lexx finally got a good look at his face. He had quite an average look, nothing noteworthy except how pale he was. It almost appeared as if he was sick.

Man, not much's going on here is there. What are the rest of you up to? I already have my next post ready. @hagroden Wanna wait some more and work on another collab post in the meantime or should I post ahead? Also asking on your opinion too, GM. @Amelian Draco

Rin dropped down a few meters in front of her and waved her hand in a quick singular motion. "I'm Rin of the Hyuga." she said maintaining her cheerful tone. For some reason she expected Sunagakure shinobi to be rather strident and straight down to business, hence the surprise at the warm introduction. She then took out a some of the candy she took from Seth and tossed them in Hitomi's direction. "Here, have some. I'm not much of a fan of the sour ones." Rin thought that would make her feel more comfortable about being here. The way she introduced herself was warm but also very formal. Being sent here just before the onset of the war meant she was going to stay a while too, so Rin thought it would make things go smoother if she maintained her usual laid back attitude. "C'mon, I'll take you to the training grounds." She said as she began walking in the direction of the training grounds. "We're not all leaf right now." she responded to her earlier statement of possibly meeting leaf shinobi at the training grounds. "There's also a Kirigakure shinobi training with us at the moment. In fact he is sparring right now with one of the Uchiha there. Fascinating Kekkei Genkai he has, the Kirigakure shinobi."

Even though she began talking to her about various things, Rin herself had many questions for Hitomi. About her, about her village. Rin was nearly trembling of curiosity. Still, she manged to suppress her curious personality since she wanted to go about this with tact. Hitomi was the guest after all, so she should be the one asking questions and Rin stated this openly too. "If you have any questions, about the village and such you can ask away."

Rin cumbersomely stood up from her comfortable position against the tree and began walking towards Seth. She overheard Seth mentioning he got the sour sweets. She wasn’t a particular fan of the sour ones either but she had other plans. “Well if you’re not going to eat them, I’ll grab a few if you don’t mind.” She explained as she picked up the bag and took a handful of sweets. She popped one in her mouth resulting her distorting her face as she tasted the sour flavor. “Yeah, definitely not of a fan of the sour ones.", She said to herself before continuing. "We might have guests in a bit so I’ll go greet them.” And with that she disappeared in a flicker.

She had been observing the approaching guest for quite some time. Enough time to become clear she was probably looking for the training grounds. Moments later she flickered on a branch near the sand shinobi. “Hi!” she began in a chipper tone. “Looking for the training grounds?”

@NanofreakV2 I thought she was named Sapphire, not Rin? :p

@LHG100

Yeah it's already the second time this happened to me. *facepalms* I really need to post separately throuhgout the day instead of doing all the post for all the RP's at the same time. I keep mixing them up.

A few hours later he was back at the abandoned building he called home. Lexx entered his room and began walking towards the bed. The sound of his footsteps on the concrete floor resonated throughout the building. Before he layed down on his bead he took another look at the room he found himself in. It certainly wasn’t in good shape. The wall paint had started to peel off in various places and it made him reflect on his life since the Grayshire incident. Since then Lexx had been so focused on his vendetta he didn’t have the free time needed to find another job. His normal life was completely static. Instead all his time and effort went into finding those responsible for what happened. Killing them was easy and not much of an effort. Finding them was the hard part. When the day began he thought he had hit a roadblock. No more leads. But at this point he we was satisfied and he knew he’d sleep well since he was now back on track. Not one, but two leads. That's all he cared about. That's what his life was comprised of. One singular objective.
Lexx began pondering the events of that day once more as he drifted into unconsciousness.

The following day was mostly spent scouring the internet for more leads, which proved to be unfruitful, and the occasionally getting of snacks from a groceries store nearby. Fortunately he had taken some of the money that he accumulated while working in Grayshire. He conservatively estimated it would last him for another month or two.

The day had passed quickly and Lexx looked through his window. The sky had already taken an orange appearance as dusk was setting in.
“Time to meet our Mr. Anonymous.” He said to himself as he set out for central park.
An hour later he was sitting on a bench near the location he had sent to the masked man. He checked his phone. Despite knowing that no precise time of day was agreed upon he was growing impatient.
