Description: While on his aimless adventures, Sora finds a Ninja. Or... a Ninja finds Sora.
Despite the fact that the snow and frost had not abated in the least and continued to blanket Death City, the shinobi Sarutobi Sasuke was not one to abandon his training, despite the added risks. Slowly but surely he was systematically discovering each part of the city first hand, all the while practicing an old skill he had greatly valued in his old world - the ability to leap freely between rooftops. Soaring through the air was something he had quite taken for granted. Now, travelling at elevation was a significantly strenuous exercise, especially considering the fact he was always armoured.
The other fact working against his favour was, of course, the ice. He had dealt with the complications ice brought to his profession as an expert in stealth often enough, but not quite with the limitations he was facing now. It called for a great deal of concentration and physical exertion on his part, but if there was one thing he had not lost, it was his sense of balance and sure-footing.
Unfortunately for Sasuke, however, the Red Light district was not something that he had previously been exposed to. Even in broad daylight, there were certain elements that generally drew one's attention. To a newcomer like this particular shinobi, it succeeded in doing so.
The result, after one particular jump with their concentration directed elsewhere, was one ninja of Kai plummeting between two buildings and into a dark alley, crashing into garbage cans and packed snow with an alarming crash, followed by a loud curse.
