Life for Haruki was rather... Difficult for him at this point. There was nothing in the way, but the potential of changing that was high. Considering his village had been attacker by someone he couldn't even pinpoint, anywhere seemed like a danger zone. His eyes guided him through the shadow country, so he was just lucky to be born in what he deemed the correct clan. However, it only had him walking the streets aimlessly. Find someone to help him, but most people were not ninja in villages. Haruki didn't want people to have suspicions, so he only gets to choose one person... Hoping they were not going to report him for being an outsider who was allowed on the inside.

So he was walking slowly down the middle of the main streets, hands behind his back and his eyes looking downwards on the ground. But... Who do I ask? There is literally no one I can identify... The brunette would realize as his hope for Akane being here was slowly being shoved down the toilet. Her chances of survival through the shadow forest, when he gave it more thought, were unfortunately slim. Still though, he was unfairly stubborn. But to have that hope would be suicide for him, as eventually he would be called out for loitering in the village.

His head would hit against a wooden pole due to his lack of attention. "Ah!" He exclaimed as he winced his eyes, forehead throbbing in a bit of pain. Fortunately, nothing he needed to heal with Medical Ninjutsu. Attention averting to the building in front of him, he noticed that it was a ramen shop... Yes... YES! His mind raced with all sorts of flavors as he hopped onto one of the stools. For once, he felt as happy as he did back when he was when he was training back in Suna. Ramen was his favorite meal, mainly because he just grew up with it.

The obvious stop for food when she could afford it was the local ramen shop, hidden by the tan and onyx colored curtains acting as a thin veil wall. Though the faces of the workers could not be seen right away, the enticing smell of the eastern noodle dishes would not be concealed. She entered at a good time, when there was nobody else around to fill the seats at the ramen bar. The silver wolf, not in the mood for human food, sat outside the stall, leaned against the outer wall on the side. Instead, he kept alert, watching people go by, with curious green eyes.

Chicken ramen was quickly being downed, enough for the lavender-haired girl to almost miss the other presence to sit on the stool beside her. As her head moved up, allowing the smell of salt, meat, and warm noodles to be removed from her senses, amethyst eyes briefly rested on the brown-haired boy sitting next to her. He was an average kid, like her, roughly of the age to be an academy student, or possibly a Genin. However, her acute perception of smell told her otherwise.

He was a stranger. Shamelessly, Tsukishira sniffed the air from right where she sat, not afraid to do what she could to enhance her canine senses. Her Chokyoshi clan features were always on display, thus, it did not take a rocket scientist to figure out what clan she was from. “Sup, kid,” she began in her usual confident manner, sitting up straight on her stool. “You’re not from around here, are ya? You smell like sand~”

It was an accurate observation, and nothing could convince her otherwise. He did not smell like some kid from Hoshi who simply enjoyed the sandboxes a little too much. The scent was foreign, and aroused suspicion in the young girl, who was not ready to continue eating her meal until she was at peace with the situation, and no longer curious. Gingerly placing her chopsticks back down in the bowl of ramen, Tsukishira crossed her arms expectantly while her dark violet gaze remained focused and narrowed. She awaited some thorough answers, and perhaps a good explanation and story.

The instant a "Sup" had been given to him, his body flinched massively. Ah! The startled child would exclaim, perhaps a bit louder than he needed it to travel. Instincts still on high alert, though only for it to backfire as there was no threat. Instead, his body weight shifted awkwardly to the side away from the newcomer. A soft cushion would connect to his fallen back, the seat next to him saving himself from a fall. His slim legs held onto the stool he was sitting on, his upper spine holding his other half. The rest of his body bent awkwardly like a pretzel, but he dared not move right now... Not if he wanted to hear what this weird girl had to tell him.

The instant she told him, the Akari blinked his eyes twice. No no no no no! He thought to himself, exerting as much energy as he could muster to prevent his facial expression to reveal the horror within his body. There was still hope for him to avoid this... Be vague. As much as he could, answer little, prevent any connections and any events. Any assumptions to remove any suspicion on his being would be fine to go through with, as long as he didn't place the assumptions in her mind. And no lies either, as this is a member of Hoshi. Should he be cross-examined incorrectly later on in the future, that was going to bite him.

"Er... Yeah..." The child replied as he glued his hands to the stool on his back, pushing himself back onto his seat. The back of his left hand felt a drop of liquid, that being a bit of his spilled Ramen broth. Lovely, he wasted a delicious meal. "Just need to find the academy here." The Akari brushed off the question the best he could, exhaling a small amount just to get the fear out of his system. His wallet was full of Ryo, it seems he could push his luck. "Want me to get you something? First round's on me if you can guide me to the academy."
