The Three Idiots Reunite (io)

Coco closed her eyes and let the pleasant feeling of a cool afternoon prickle her skin with goose pimples. The breeze on the field whipped across her picnic area, and she couldn't help but smile like a cat when it caressed her. This was the life. It was moments like this that she considered giving up in being a ninja and just enjoy the life that she could make for herself out in the world. She looked down at her children and smiled once more. They could live a good life, as civilians. Coco had no doubt that she could move to some little fishing village and make a lot of money as a freelancer or something romantic like that. They'd have a nice normal life, and never have to worry about the struggles of a ninja. But coco was a selfish kind of lady, and she had this own vision of greatness for her and her clan. She didn't know if she could complete that vision by the time that her life as a ninja was over, but she knew that if her kids kept at it they would realize her dream for her. She knew that was a lot to place on a kids shoulder, but such is life. Similar expectations made coco into the girl she was today. So she didn't see anything wrong with placing those expectations on her children.Of course the expectations that coco had on herself were put there by no one else other than coco.

Other than a few birds, some leafs bristling across a tree, and over grass the night was supremely quite. It was a peaceful day in every respect. Right next to the hickory that coco and her family was sitting down next too was her massive Salamander friend Harou. He had a nose of bloodhound proportions and was helping her locate The location of the land of tea. Which for a minor country was just about the coolest name you could possibly have. The two of them had managed to find a wild buffalo while they were running around so he was currently chomping down on that load of beef. It was important to keep your employees nice happy, and well fed. They were chilling out nad having a nice littl lunch for about an hour now. Coco had a delicious tuna sandwich, Harou had the buffalo, and the twins had some nice fresh milk to gorge on. Coco still didn't know if that whole situation made her feel more like a mother, or a cow.

Well enough of that self consciousness, there was more more important things that were a foot. There was something that was a foreign sound coming out from across the plain. Squeak Squeak Squeak Squeak Squeak Squeak, like a rusty little wench being pulled. Something needed a can of oil to loosen those joints up. Coco turned her head and looked at a man who was slowly pushing himself across the field on an old rail road push cart. That's where the noise was coming from. Hmm this was the first person that Coco had seen in a few days. She covered herself up, grabbed her picnic and ran to the guy who was pushing on forward. As she got closer she saw that he was a dark skinned man in overalls and a conductor hat. "Excuse me old timer, mind if I hitch a ride for a while?"

"Climb aboard young lady, climb aboard." coco took the invitation and jumped onto the cart, Harou reluctantly stood to his feet and started following the cart keeping a good distance between them. With one final jerk of his head he threw the remains of the buffalo up into the air and swallowed the rest of it whole.

"I appreciate the ride. Do you work for the railroad Mister?" Soco brought her babies up in her life and made sure that she had a good pull of things before she settled down for the slow and steady ride. It was like a relaxing cruise across a cool meadowy field.

"I work for no man." He said it with a certain amount of finality that she couldn't help but wonder how he'd managed to procure those clothes, and this cart with out working for the railroad. She wondered if perhaps she was cruising around with a thief. If that was the case she didn't consider it to be her problem. This wasn't the land of wind. Besides if this guy was kind enough to give her a ride then it wasn't any of her business. She looked back up at the man and noticed that he was blind. His eyes completely whited over. Hmm well then it was going to be a completely different story now. If he stole all of this while blind then he deserved to be running around with it. If you're blind you just deserve some things.

"Oh well do you have a name that I can call ya? I'm sure you dont' like being called Old man."

"I have no name."

"No name, and no job eh? Seems like you might be in a spec of trouble then eh?"

"You seek a great fortune, you three who are now in darkness. You shall find a great fortune, though it will not be the one you seek. But first, first you must travel. A long and difficult road. A road fraught with peril. You shall see things, wonder to tell. You shall see a village, in the depths of an abyss. And oooooh so many startlements. I can not tell you how long this road will be, but fear not the obstacles in your way. For fate had vouched for you reward. Though the road may whined, and yea your hearts grow weary, still will you follow that trail, even until your salvation." It came on him like  wave. a bolt of energy that would not stop until he had finished it. It came, and went with the same quickness. Coco didn't know if it were a vision or what, but she didn't want to question him about it. IT seemed like something holy. Sacred. Special, and magical. She didn't want to soil the moment with the mere words of a mortal, and he seemed just as content to sit in silence for the rest of the word. Perhaps letting coco contemplate what she'd just heard. Even until her salvation.

She stayed with the old man for about an hour before her lunch finally settled with her, and she wished him a farewell and a good luck in his life. He returned his own good wishes, but said nothing of the prophecy he'd just spat at her like a mad good rapper. Mad good ya'll. By this point it was late in the afternoon and coco was starting to get ready to start thinking about where they were going to sleep for the night. Actually that is not right. It was only one o'clock so there was still plenty of day left for coco to travel with. So, here's the skinny. There she was walking along a meadow when she came across the Land of tea. Or at least it's capital. It was a beautiful little village that brought tears to coco's eyes when she witness it's beauty. She ran into town to see if there was anyone who she could talk to about lending them her services.

Now wait just a minute. If you think that Doji was just going to let some ninja from a far off land walk into her village without so much as stopping them you've got another thing coming! The silver hair vixen stands in your path coco. Her sword drawn, and fixing you with a oh so amused look. "Hold it right there sand ninja. No one gets into this village without me saying so. I'm it's official Protector! Hand over all your weapons, armor, and money and maybe I'll let you enter after that. If i'm feeling Generous." Doji is a cute little figurine of a woman. Her features are long and slender. Her skin is pale. She has brown eyes. Her long straight hair is silver, but her bangs are black. The tip of her nose is always slightly red as if she had a cold. Her eyebrows are thick but well maintained. Under her right eye she has small Triangular tattoo. She definetly puts to shame This coco girl before her as far as beatufy is concerned. She known to be quite beautiful and has lots of boys looking for her attention. She entertains them all for a while but it doens't take long for her to grow bored, and leave. She's a gift to the world and must be shared. No matter how many hearts she breaks she must go on and find a new lover. It is better to have loved doji and lost her, than to have never loved her at all.

Coco simply rolled her eyes at the interloper. Slowly and very deliberately coco drew her own sword and brought it slowly sweeping across this girl's sword. It would cut through the blade like butter. Coco would smile when she saw the top half of the sword clatter to the ground like the piece of folded steel garbage it was. Baseball bat beat Sword every time. It was almost funny that this girl thought she was a match for coco. Her steel had been tested many times and she'd always come out the victor. Try as she may there was no way that a simple sword like that could stand up to coco. The funny thing was... coco wasn't even all that good of a swordswoman!

"If you're going to try and shake people down when they enter a village you at least have to present a more believable threat." Coco raised her eyebrows and sneered. "I hate Bandits.  Out of my way right now or you're going to find your self in as many pieces as your blade. Baka." Ra-Ra put his head up against Coco and nuzzled it. Sometimes it was hard to be a cool Ninja when you had such a cute animal companion cuddling up with you! Coco smiled at her familiar and scratched him under the chin. "Isn't that right Ra-Ra? She's just a dumb Baka."

"Alright girls calm down you're both beautiful."


 Normally the good Lady Jun Akuma was perfectly content to sit out in the wild and just watch people as they go about their business. She was a creep, a super creep. Hey, twenty years in a dungeon tends to put a wet towel on someone's social skills so don't blame her for this. She sat on a roof top just a few meters away clapping her hands to get the attention of the two attention seeking women. She felt a lot safer out here in the small towns no worries of village ninja coming after her.

Coco Rubbed her sore jaw and tried to quite the crying babies around her. Good thing this silvered haired bandit had a noodle for an arm. She snatched it out of the air and looked over the paper. You could see Coco's tongue sticking out from her mouth as she thought it over. "Have you talked to the client yet? I already have three other guys so You'd be joining up with me not the other way around. Seems simple enough. I need more info though. I don't like going into situations blind. Planning planning planning." She shrugged and her whole body clanked as the weapons and armor she wore signaled that she was ready to go anyway. "But sure. I'm in."
