"Of course you'd pick a tough one.", Ruki said in a light teasing tone. "Well...", the kunochi looked at the sky thinking back to when she was a kid, "I guess they were like your everyday parent. They were both shin obi, so they were gone quite a bit off on missions and stuff and I took over the household routines most of the time. But for their personalities? Opposites. My dad pushed me constantly to be a shin obi for the Steam Village like them.....which is what I wanted to do anyway. He was supportive and believed in pushing a person into, tough, situations or scenarios to bring out their best.", the kunochi adjusted her head band around her neck for a moment. "My mom on the other hand..", she continued, "I gave her a tough time I think and put a fair amount of stress on her. She was a shin obi, but I swear that women was too protective and had a nasty temper too boot when she was angry. If she was upset for the slightest reason, the whole house paid for it untill she calmed down. She tried to talk me out of being a shin obi once or twice, but gave up once she eventually realized it was hopeless. Dad had gotten his claws into my brain too deep by then." Ruki thought back to when she had pinned Koda's father in her raven form for a few minutes and grew silent again. She narrowed her eyes at the ground.
"Almost time. Once the sun sets it should be alright to go out into the village and search unnoticed.", said Kiro as he looked up at the sky.
Kayoto returned to where Clover and Ion where. He noticed how tiered his rather looked and grined, "Looks like Clover really put you through the tests."
