-appears in a cloud of smoke-
Yo. What's this about?

Ah, so you're here. Good. Who are you and why are you here?

I bow, not one to be rude.
"I, sir, am Ayaka Woulfe.
Though, it is but a form of me"

The body of AYaka Woulfe crumples to the ground like a piece of paper.
A crimson vortex appears in the ground, as a figure cloaked in darkness rises out of it. The person bows in respect.
"I am Kuroya Hisu, The Chishiokage of
The Village Hidden Within The Bloodshed.
Pleasure to meet you".
With a flick of her fingers, the body and the
crimson vortex dissapear.
She sighs, relived.
"Controling that puppet is tiresome..."

*I appear from the tree and stand next to ZK*
Sorry for the interruption ZK.
I have something I have to say to this person.
You lied to me. How you lie to me? I was the only person who accepted you when you first came to the village. I let you in my house we chilled and this charaka I felt that I thought was my friend is nothing but a puppet!!!! How could you do this me?

*Still leans against the tree and looks at Terry, with a "wtf??" expression on his face.*

Alright then. Now that you're here in completion, why are you here?

*the faint glow around me grows to a deeper blue and i open my eyes revealing them black and lifeless*

Sands of Time.

*i take out the hourglass and stop time from moving except around Skye, Kuroya, and myself, thus preventing any more intrusions*

Geez Terry, you really need to work on that. Anyway, explain yourself.

I frown, not recongnizing Terry for a moment. I snap my fingers as I rember when my vassal met him.
"Not really, Terry. Miss Ayaka just recently became my vassal...
Very feisty. She made such a mess too. So much blood fell..."
I sighed, remebering the battle. Of course, she could not beat a Kage.

You're avoiding the question.

*i step to Ayaka and look her straight in the eye*

Tell me why you're here, or I'll be forced to protect my village.

"Oh!" She looks around as time itself has frozen around them. She scrathes her chin, impressed.
"Quite the nifty jutsu you have there.
As for why I'm here..."
She inhales air, knowng this could take awhile.
" I am here to form, say, an alliance?"
A grimace appears on her face.
"Ketseuki has always been somewhat idepentent, but...
our population is not that great.
My warriors are all bloodthirsty,
and It's my fault for teaching them that way.
Yet, we have rolled over a new leaf recently...
we finally installed a ranking system, instead of kage,
kages protecters, and not. But we are no longer so great in number...
and.."
She grimaced again.
" I think if we actually...
acknowledged other villages,
we could perhaps become a more...
Sturdy nation..."

*Rolls his eyes.* That tactic didn't work for me, Missy; what makes you think it'll work for your village?

Snarling, Koruya turned to Skye.
"I must do whatever I can for my village!
I shall try everything that needs to be done to ensure their safety!"

Well, what would we have to gain of this alliance, other than another village to associate ourselves with? Clearly, there's nothing left there worth having if you're here asking for an alliance with a dwindling membership. Am I right?

*i insert my hands into my pockets while still staring into Koruya's eyes intently*

Unless there's something you seem to have held back...

Which I doubt.

Kuroya twitched. She had something but..it wouldn't be of use to them, considering it was only her who could use it.

Hmmm... So, something you're keeping from me? Is this really the time to be keeping secrets?
