Coming Home (Private. Flashback)

Mizuni had just finished the Chuunin Exams and passed over the borders between the Fire Nation's land and Kirigakure's small amount of territory they held currently on the main coast, Mizuni having shown his papers to the guards at the border checkpoint to pass over. He walked along side the Deva Path and listened intently on his entire surroundings, also scanning the area ahead with the Deva Path's vision, and to the sides with his own vision.

Uruagi was exploring the world now, he would wander into a small territory belonging to Kirigakure on a coast. Uruagi would notice someone just before he began his journey to Kirigakure. "Well, hello there." He would yell at the man who had been farther away, perhaps about fifty or so feet.

Mizuni would continue walking, Deva Path at his side, until he stopped when he heard the voice of a boy, quite distant away, but when Mizuni turned his attention toward the direction he could see the headband on the boy's head. It was a Sunagakure ninja, based on the head protector Mizuni saw. Mizuni immediately wondered silently why a Sunagakure ninja was on Kirigakure territory. Kirigakure was not allied with any other village, that Mizuni knew of, at the moment. And that would mean the boy would need a reason to be here. Mizuni used Body Flicker and stopped directly in front of the boy, thrusting his hand up at the boy Uruagi's throat and would grasp it tightly if Mizuni had successfully grabbed the boy by his throat.

Uruagi would sit there, as the man grabbed his throat. He only stood there, looking down on the child, the smile on his face leaving. He would begin to think, will he kill this one? "I am Uruagi Senju." he told the child, with the hand around his throat. He would raise his own, beginning to strike down towards his face.

Mizuni quickly observed the boy's hand raising and Deva Path would dash towards Mizuni and the boy's position, and would go to grab Uruagi's wrist tight. Mizuni would speak to Uruagi in a cold tone. "What is your purpose here, Suna boy? This is Kirigakure's land, and you would need papers to be permitted into this land as Kirigakure and Sunagakure have not made any form of alliance or permission for ninja of each village to pass onto territory of the other village's territory," Mizuni explained, his one exposed eye showing through as it would be visible to Uruagi now, at such close quarters.

Uruagi would continue to throw his fist at the man's face, successfully hitting the chin, however during that time his other hand's wrist would be grabbed by someone else, He would use his foot to go and kick the new enemy.

Mizuni would barely flinch as Uruagi's fist would strike weakly against the lower edge of Mizuni's mask. It would appear that the boy was now hostile. Very well, you have sealed your own fate, boy, Mizuni would think to himself. Before Deva Path could be hit by the boy's kick, as Uruagi's leg was quite slow compared to Deva Path's speed, Mizuni would let the boy go, and Deva Path would quickly unsheathe his sword and raise it, then jabbing it quickly at the left side of Uruagi's throat, since Deva Path was to Uruagi's left already.

(DEAD)

Mizuni searched the body of the now dead boy, since Deva Path's sword had pierced the boy's neck and killed him. Mizuni found no papers to pass borders, just some ryo which Mizuni took for himself. Deva Path leaned down and lifted the body, hefting it over his shoulder. Mizuni turned back on the dirt path and headed towards Tanzaku Town to rest, the Deva Path carrying the body of Uruagi with him as they walked.
