Forever Wandering, Forever Traveling [Sarutobiz, Ibiki, open]

Apr 19, 2008 20:54

Despite the warm spring days, the cool breezes, and the beautiful nature surrounding her as the caravan of ninja made their way through Fire Country to the capital, Asuka wished she was holed back up inside her home. With the windows shuttered closed and the doors locked. And in bed. With a pillow over her head. Not that this was an unusual train ( Read more... )

She'd been admirably silent. So much so in fact, that Konohako was sure she deserved some kind of medal for doing little but hum under her breath now and again. Seriously...

Still, Aunt Asuka was in a bad mood - as usual - and that meant little to no talking. Konohako didn't like it but, whatever. It wasn't like she and the older Sarutobi had anything at all to discuss.

And this Morino woman....Konohako didn't like her. Never mind that she generally did not get along with any sort of authority figure. She wasn't entertaining and now Konohako was deadly bored.

She'd seen the Uchiha and the Hanabit too, but Konohako was supposed to stay close to her escort and as this sorta kinda counted as mission in some respects, the girl was trying to behave.

Flopping down on the ground, under a shady tree, the young girl glowered at her two adult companions. She was absolutely sure that Tsurude-sama would have been a lot more fun to be with and was sore at him for getting sick. Seriously, he was the Hokage - and a MEDIC. Didn't he have some ( ... )

After calling a stop, Ibiki chose to sit with her back against the nearest broad tree trunk not only because of the measure of protection it provided from a surprise attack, but also for the support it lent. She hadn't been in the field for years and all this walking was proving to be hell on her lower back. Not to imply she was out of shape: she trained regularly both alone and with a partner daily. However, her regimen failed to negate the pure and simple fact that she still spent most of her time either sitting at her desk, or standing in observation or performance of an interrogation ( ... )

Dark eyes looked at the woman sharply, as if Konohako was trying to figure out if Ibiki was being sarcastic or not. A frown twisted the girl's lips as she scrunched her nose.

Thin shoulders fell forward as she sat up, hunching over her legs without her eyes leaving Ibiki's face.

"Oh yeah. Loads." Konohako stated, in a rather annoyed tone of voice. Of course she wasn't having fun yet. What kind of ridiculous question was that?!

The kind adults always seemed to ask. Maybe something about growing up made you lose, like, your "fun-o-meter" or something and then you had to ask stupid questions to make up for it. (Briefly Konohako wondered where a 'fun-o-meter' would be located in the human brain but then shoved all that away in favor of being cranky instead ( ... )

Ibiki gave the child a faint glimmer of a smile. "As a matter of fact, I am." True: she hadn't been out of the village in so long that despite the physical discomforts, she was actually pleased at all of this. In as much as she could be.

The amusement to barely touch her features took on an only just discernible edge when she glanced to Asuka. "And how are you holding up, Asuka?"
