Looking for his Friend.

Inijo was walking along the borders, looking for someone whom of which he had used to know. It had been a while since he had last saw her, the last time he remembered seeing her was when the two was training, not too far outside of Kumogakure. Though the person was weird, she was one of the few people he had conversations with for more than a few minutes, someone who he had actively trained with before her disappearance. He had been 'inactive' for a while, in that sense he hadn't been training or doing anything that he should have been, such as Missions, he was just living, staying at home, and the such. Yuriko couldn't have been too far from the village, he figured. She was an odd person, and did seem like the type to randomly leave the village for a random reason. Since he hadn't heard from her in a while, he decided to stroll outside of the village, looking for her. He was far from the village right now, enough of a distance to where it would take a day or so to get back there. He'd been out here for a few days already, searching for her.

Night was growing near, and the time of his absence was probably raising some note worthy alarm due, he figured he should be heading back to the village since it would take some time to get back. He had been looking for her through use of his chakra sensory, having memorized her signature he was sure he could find her with simply actively using his Chakra sensory, however that wasn't the case. He dropped his focus, beginning to head back towards the village.

Near was finished with his original job as he began to head in the direction of his new friend. As he walked through the woods he would find the path which lead to the village. He had decided to take a risk and take it. Near was not an extremely wanted ninja but had that day came he would be powerful enough to save his own life. Near was half naked and kept his items in his robe to keep the nosey people from searching him. He wore tattoos but he looked completely harmless as if he was simply a boy that corrupted old men would fuck for the hell of it.

Near continued to walk the road for half a day until he would make it to a point. This point he saw a man. As it grew dark it was hard to tell what this man was, let alone his rank. The first thing that came to his head were the words of father. 'Some men must be dealt with in a long process' This thought appeared as Near was Tasked with killing a victim. His attack on the boy was not enough for him to gain father's approval. Suddenly Near would feel fate take action. A root that grew from the ground caught the feet of the boy. This caused him to tumble down and roll toward the man who had been walking his way. As he laid on the ground, he pretended to be unconscious.

He continued to walk, not even moving at half of his full speed capabilities when all of the sudden he would hear some loud noise, looking over he would see someone who had looked like they had just tripped, but they weren't moving. Walking over, somewhat concerned, he would begin to question him. "Oi, you alright? What's your name? What are you doing here?" He would ask, it being rather weird for someone to be out here, especially if they weren't a Shinobi. From appearance alone he could tell that the man wasn't one who was trained to be a Shinobi - lacked the headband. He walked over, looking down at the man, waiting for an answer.

Inijo wouldn't do anything yet, he would wait for a simple answer for the man for each of the three questions. He seemed to be a citizen, lacking the headband most Shinobi own, something even Missing nin wore to show signs of hating their village, though with a cut along the plating for the symbol. The man also lacked weapons in appearance, he couldn't see any but didn't doubt he had at least one, it was dangerous traveling the borders, let alone traveling them weaponless. He wanted the name merely for recognition, if he knew him then he would possibly question him more, if not, which was more likely, then the question in itself was semi-useless. The only question that meant anything was if he was what he was doing here. If he was leaving Kumogakure things would present trouble, if not then things would probably be fine. He expected the man to be a merchant, however he had no items on him in appearance. He would begin to focus his chakra, waiting for a response from the man. He was currently looking for the signature of anyone else who could have harmed the unconscious man. If the man remained silent, he would just begin to carry him on his back, heading towards the village where he would seek medical attention for the man.

Near had his plan set out untill a little bump in the road ca used near to losee his sense of being. He could not hear or respond to the man who ran up to him. He would hear a few words and he would mumble back. An answer that could not be heard. Near would wonder whether this man was an ok suit for a medic so he would reply as clearly as possible. "R...rank? And vil..vil..village? " he said for a lowly genin could not take care of near at this point.

Slowly he would gain back his hearing and ability to speak before the man would answer him. He would not show it for he would still be in sligut shock from the fall. That fall had been more than he expected and the roc that hit him made him bleed from the head. Near was hoping it did not cause any brain damage because his menatal power could not be flawed so easily.

He would soon hear the man reply to him, though it wasn't answering any of the questions. He asked for Inijo's Rank and village, he replied giving him the information that he was a Chuunin from Kumogakure, while at the same time having noticed the man's wounds began to patch them up and tend to them to the best of his ability, while he was no med-nin it was still better than nothing. He then proceeded to carry him back to Kumogakure, in search of a more skilled medical ninja. He began to walk slow enough to where the man wouldn't fall off, though he had an entire day of traveling to do an perhaps more than that, having decided that he would probably be traveling throughout the night time to get him help. He sighed a little, but would continue to move fast enough to get him to the village before two days time, 'lest anything unexpected happened.

Near felt the man patch of his wounds. But he had given hI'm horrible information. It was sad the reason why near had left the village. His family was killed by a group. The group was unknown but they had ties with the hidden village of cloud's dark ancient member . They were bent on keeping pure bloodlInes and not those that were impure. Near was apart of this impure factor. His family were killed and he was blamed for it. He had to run away but he would come back withis the proper proof.

Near would reach in the back of his underwear as the man began to walk to the village. As he slowly pulled out hid kunai and waited. His senses came back and he would place the knife around his neck and sliced the front of his neck. Had he tried to move away he could attack back but Near was afraid of that. Using all his power he would try to kill this man as fast as he could.

Inijo continued to walk, even quickening his pace as the man wasn't really making any sound or replies to his statement about him being a Chuunin of Kumogakure. He had a day of travel ahead of him, so he couldn't be moving too slowly despite how tired he may be. He would have to save time later for finding Yuriko, perhaps a time when he would actually be allowed outside of the village gates, perhaps while on a mission he figured. Having been unsuccessful in finding his friend this time around, he would only fear her growing further away from Kumogakure, making the search harder.

Continuing towards Kumogakure, taking a rest after having been running around all day, he would take a breather. Not too long after starting he continued however, fearing that the man already didn't have too long to last. He increased speed even further, traveling towards Kumogakure. He still wasn't moving at his full speed, he was moving about a fourth of his true speed as he continued to try and build up without causing much harm to the man. However, he didn't make it much farther from the starting point, as, due to his lack of attention, Inijo would have his throat slit by the very man he was making an attempt to get help for. Blood would spew, as he began to fall to the ground, lifeless.

Near fell to the ground with the man he was now ready to head home. He stod up and dragged the man's body with him to the woods. Near had a stash of bodies so far. They were in a cave deep in the woods. He would soon use these parts for a new dawn in the world of Shinobi.
