There isn't enough rain to snuff out this flame

Walking up to the gates he did so stealthy. His breaths were light and he moved as if he was a ghost as if he was a leaf dancing with the wind. He wore a tattered brown hooded poncho and came closer and closer to the gates. What happened since he was gone? Have Li and CoRin eturned? Was Aios handling their shop well? Has Falcone finally grew out his moustache with the twirly ends? So many questions. He looked up at the gates and tilted his head and frowned odd....he was expecting some grand entrance from Aios like usual. He didn't enter there's was something off he just couldn't tell what...maybe he was scared. What if he was forgotten? No that's impossible even if that happened....it was possible! He is known to be easily forgotten for crying out loud.

The boy stood there silently in the rain, looking up towards the sky with his eyes closed a smiled found it's way on his face as the cool rain came into contact with his skin. Yes just like that day he meet CoRin...well except now he won't go flying through the roof of some grocery store. His skateboard was strapped to his back however! So many memories....what to expect? "I returned...." the words that left his mouth as he would open his eyes to see the falling rain.

Through the rain Mr. Dian detected something interesting. Something awfully familiar too. It couldn't be. Best to be safe though. Along with his host of angels Li Dian traveled forth through the sky and towards the entrance of his village, to meet a certain red haired ninja. He'd seen it through the rain, but in person it was just too much to believe. It was him, really him. One of the founders of New Ame. "Levi?" Li asked his voice just dripping with surprise as he floated a few feet above the air in front of his friend. The two of them it looked, had done some growing since they last met. Both were taller now, older, stronger, probably.

Li had finally grown into his limbs and was now Six foot one. His hair was as platinum, and as spikey as ever. His eyes were that distinctive yamanaka blue with no pupils, but under them there were some bags as if he hadn't been sleeping well. Gone were his old shirt, and slacks and now he wore a Dark Purple and
red looking Robe, with a high collar. Though his shoes were still canvas sneakers.

After a moment he shook off his disbelief and regained his composure. He let out a long and happy chuckle and threw his hands in the air. "Now you're just about the last person I expected to see coming through these gates!"

One of his angels would fly above levi and shield him from the rain. "Come, on let's not have our reunion out in here. I'll take you to my place and we can grab something to eat. Of course by my place...." He let out a cat like smile and allowed himself a moment of pride. "... I mean the Leader's building."

Levi watched as Angels flew overhead and towards him. Yep he knew what those were and with a smile he removed his hood revealing a much older Levi, not the same bratty short rich kid he was the last time he was here in fact he was at least an inch taller than Li being the reverse since their last meeting he was shorter than him. "Yo shorty!" He said with a laugh as he looked at his friend. He couldn't wait to see how the others were doing, Aios, Falcone he wondered if that old geezer was still kicking and most importantly CoRin. He gave a nod to Li as one of his puppets flew overhead and covered him from the rain. "If I wasn't mistaken I was supposed to have a statue built somewhere.....that was part of our deal remember? "

Levi knew his stay here wasn't going to be long, he was here strictly on business. To help hunt that mn and brings his head to Xyxer and some ryo. "Last person? I didn't go off and die...geez at least give me some credit. I said I'll come back and I did with some minor arrangements and other things I'm fine. Oh I made a new friend too" He would begin to prep up to bring out his summon but a her voice only rang out through his mind. "ARE YOU AN IDIOT? ALL THIS DAMN RAIN YOUR TRYING TO SUMMON ME IN!?" So he stopped and slightly chuckled. "You'll meet her later, when she isn't pissed."

He laughed when he heard Li call the leader chambers his place and then thought about his dojo he found. "Well Mr.Leader of Ame, lead the way and fill me in on all I missed since the last time I was here."
