Strolling

Takeo had come to a decision. The decision had taken weeks to be decided upon. He was going on a trip. He was not sure where he was going to go. Or even how long he was going to be on this trip. In a rather strange move he had decided not to notify anyone of this trip. Simply because he saw no actual reason for him to. He had seen many people entering and exiting the village at different times. No documentation was on them, at least as far as he could tell. Though he had also witnessed events where people had been caught trying to leave. The result had ended in the death of the boy, due to Takeo. Though the reason was the threats the boy had spouted towards him, he turned out to be a missing-nin anyway so it was all good. As he walked towards the gates the sun was beginning to go down. He figured that this was around the time that people would be heading on home. He was carrying a sack over his shoulder, which contained all the stuff that he needed of course. Though the entirety of his equipment did make the sack quite heavy it was only slightly a pain to carry. In his hand was a scroll. It was for a mission of course, one that he had taken before heading towards the gates. If things did turn out to be a problem then he had something in which he could fall back on. So yeah he exited the village and strolled off. A note had been sent to Haru though, detailing where he had left the body of Yozora. It was of course still in his basement, along with the rest of her items.

It was such a wonderful day....there was no explosive messages sent nor any midget body builders in sight. Shinji was, as usual, walking around the village aimlessly, because what else does a former acting kage do in his down time? All the same the former leader of Tengakure was walking by the grand village gates when he spied a familiar face: Tikeo. The boy seemed to be leaving the village with a large sack and a scroll. Naturally Shinji knew that Tekeo was not stupid enough to simply try and walk out the gates and go missing ninja as he had seen what happened to those who tried first hand. Wanting something to do the second Tenkage decided to see where the chuunin was off to. In a clear crisp voice Shinji called out, so Tokeo could hear, "Hey, Takeo where are you off to?" It was a reasonable question that Takeo would be asked as he proceeded through the gates, so Shinji chose to get it out of the way and expedite Takeo's departure.

Takeo was making his way out of the gates when he heard a voice. It was a voice he had heard a couple of days ago, or perhaps it had been weeks. Regardless of how long it had been he recognised the voice. It was Sonji, the second Tenkage of Tengakure. He stopped and spun, turning to face the source of the noise with a smile. With the turn confirmed the boy's thoughts. It was indeed Sangi. "Hello there Shinji." He greeted the man, not bothering to answer the question immediately. Instead he took his time, thinking of a suitable tale for why he was leaving. He had to think of one that Shangi would believe. It took a moment or so for him to come up with one. "I'm going on a spiritual journey." He wondered if that was enough of an explanation. Maybe he should elaborate to Zanji on why he was going on said journey? Yeah that would help..probably. "Several incidents have happened recently. I am taking an opportunity to help clear my mind of these things." He then held up the scroll in his right hand, to bring it to Rhinji's attention. "I'm also taking a mission while I'm at it, as to occupy my time." Now he wondered how likely it was that he would be able to escape this man. Perhaps he should have done this at night time.

Shinji listened to the boy's story and, honestly, it was pretty believable. Hell, last time Takeo had been at the gates he had killed a kid, which was no doubt traumatizing too an extent. Nodding along with Takeo's story, Shinji allowed the chuunin to finish speaking. At that point Shinji spoke up once again, "Very well, I suppose I will fill out a bit of paperwork, so that you are not considered a missing shinobi. However, I will ask that you come back from time to time just so that we know where your allegiances lie. Please represent Tengakure well or keep your identity concealed." With that Shinji would walk Takeo and talk with the guards explaining the situation. Despite Shinji not being the acting kage he still had some power although Denkiteki could always veto his decisions, which was troublesome, but Shinji had not seen him for a while. For now, Takeo was free to go on his way.

Takeo nodded to the words of the man as he spoke. It seemed he would not be getting killed by an angry Kage this time. "Thank you, and I will of course not damage the reputation of this village." He felt like a dramatic sort of bow to accompany his words was appropriate but he refrained from doing so. Instead he turned once more and made his way to the gates. Shinji took care of the guards by explaining what was going on, which was a good thing. He wasn't quite sure how he would've dealt with them otherwise, though the excuse of going on a mission usually worked when it came to them. Exiting the village he decided not to delay any longer, in case the one person within the village with the authority that outmatched Shinji's would arrive. So yeah, he made a hasty exit. Not a run mind you, that would seem rather suspicious after all. Instead it was more of a swift walk. Now the question was of course where the hell he would go. Maybe he would head for the coast and go on a voyage by sea? Yeah, that seemed like a nice start.

[Wanderer Rank or something I guess achieved]

After talking with the guards Shinji made his way back to the grand kage building. He had some business to attend to. This business entailed kicking some motivation into Denkiteki. After all Shinji had not seen the new kage in the longest time and his presence in the village was severely lacking.
