A new day in a new village [Private/nokill/Daiko]

Kiyoshi was up early. He was still in Kumogakure. He was thinking about the war between Kumo and Konoha. Kumo seemed such a nice place, they were so nice to Kiyoshi even though he was pretty much the enemy at that point. He felt like he had to learn more about the situation and decided to snoop around a bit around Kumo. Maybe he would get some new friends. He also wanted to fight someone. Just a nice spar would do great. Afterall people in Kumo have different fighting styles than the people in Konoha. Kiyoshi was fantasizing about all of it.

Kiyoshi walked out of his room after cleaning it up a bit. He had his armor on. Even though he was pretty sure that no one here would attack him anymore since Daiko give his word for it. He still was a bit wary of himself. After all, an enemy in your own village. People would get a bit anxious. As Kiyoshi walked through the village he greeted some people. They all reacted kind off stiff. They seemed to be somewhat afraid as Kiyoshi had first expected. It would be nice if someone were to just treat him normally. He wanted to have a nice conversation with someone. He hoped someone would show up pretty soon.

As Kiyoshi was walking around Kumo it started raining a bit. He didn't know where to go to hide for shelter. His room was way too far. He looked around but noboby seemed willing to let him in. Kiyoshi was pretty sad hoping that somebody would help him out.

Daiko is drifting around the village, a bit worried about the Raikage's absence. He drifts down at the ground, and looks at his hands. They had changed so much over the years. Who was once a playful child had now become a man who killed without hesitation. He sighs, and looks at the ground. So many things were happening at once for him. Not only was there a war, but he had to watch out at every corner for a ninja to attack him. He decided he would talk to the villagers, and see what they have to say. "There is a strange man wandering around, Daiko. I haven't seen him here before, he could be one of those Konoha members." He looks at the woman, and replies, "Oh yes, his name is Kiyoshi. He is officially part of this village, so I hoped that you had treated him like one. You did, didn't you?" The woman stuttered a bit, and Daiko just decided to leave her. Why was everyone so afraid of opening up to new people? He was a trusted villager just like everyone else. If Daiko had thought that he was tricking him, he wouldn't be alive.

It began to rain a bit, and Daiko spotted a black cloaked man in the distance. "Is that... Kiyoshi?" It was indeed Kiyoshi, and Daiko ran to greet him. "Hey, what are you doing out here in this rain? If you're looking for a place to stay, there is always your room in the mansion. We can actually train in this weather if you would like, It makes it all the more interesting."

It was still raining in Kumogakure. The people still weren't kind enough to offer Kiyoshi a place to stay. He was kinda sad but he could very well understand what went through their minds. Letting a stranger in? In times of war? It was a natural way of thinking. He definetly didn't blame the people. Protecting yourselves from danger is human nature. The rain intensified a little bit. Kiyoshi let it flow on his face. He looked upwards to the darkened sky as he said to himself Wonder how your doing Bro. Kiyoshi chuckled and a small tear broke down. It wasn't really visible to others as the it seemed just like rain.

All of a sudden, Kiyoshi heard someone call out to him. It appeared to be Daiko. Kiyoshi was relieved there was someone that wanted to talk to him. Daiko came running at Kiyoshi while saying "Hey, what are you doing out here in this rain? If you're looking for a place to stay, there is always your room in the mansion. We can actually train in this weather if you would like, It makes it all the more interesting." Some training huh? Kiyoshi was definetly ready for some training. Something to keep his mind busy, to keep himself sharp. He wanted to learn something new while he was in Kumo. Daiko seemed like a really nice guy who would also definetly be able to pack a punch. A small smile appeared on Kiyoshi's face as he told Daiko Some training would be awesome. I'd definetly like to keep myself sharp for the incoming battles.

Kiyoshi went with Daiko to wherever would be the best place to train. Training amongst a lot of people would problably cause too much commotion. They didn't want to raise a stir afterall. Kiyoshi asked Daiko something I've problably been added to the Bingo book haven't I? Should you really be protecting a criminal. Kiyoshi's smile dissapeared a bit. The usual bright man who was up for a challenge was a little bit depressed. Afterall a lot had changed for him in a short time. But he shouldn't let it get to his head. He made the decision, now he must follow through. He waited for Daiko to respond while making himself ready.
