Desert Refugee

These two were turning out to be very interesting fellows. Nobu seemed to have no idea about the change in Sunagakure, even asking her who Kenshin was. It was very strange to see someone very alienated from current events. However, she did learn that the shinobi was trained by the Kazekage of the previous era, Koroshi Uchiha. "You have a lot of experience, old man. It would be very interesting to learn more. We can also catch you up on current events inside." 

As for Aichi, his nature chakra was starting to inflate, almost like he was preparing for an outburst of energy. His body would even start to discolor, a part of what happens when you absorb a lot of natural energy It concerned Tsubaki as a Jugo outburst could mean that he either doesn't get let in or worse he gets killed. She would have to do something about it.

Tsubaki paused as she leads the two to the shelter and faced Bran. "Would you take Nobu inside for the questions? I will stay out here and talk with Aichi." Bran respected Tsubaki's authority and lead Nobu inside where he had access to snacks and more water if he needed it.

--------------------------------
(For Aichi)
As soon as the other two were inside, Tsubaki would quickly turn around to face Aichi (2 meters away from Tsubaki) and weave 6 hand signs. Suddenly, a swamp of dense mud would form behind Aichi 3 meters behind him. Should the mud grab a hold of him, it would start to submerge his feet into the mud and start gaining up him. The small swamp would span 10 meters in diameter, the circle stoping 1 meter from Tsubaki's own feet. 

"I'm sorry, Aichi, but I can't let you into the village with your possible outburst. I don't know your level of power so I can't risk you leaving either, especially with your body about to transform. I'm going to have to detain you in Hoshi until you are deemed safe." 

Tsubaki didn't know if she had enough power to take on a Jugo, but she was going to do her best to protect her village. If Aichi knew what was best for him, he too would find out that it was the best option to protect himself. Should he just be wandering around Hoshi's borders with the random, uncontrolled, and violent outbursts they would have no choice but to kill him.

------------------------------
(For Nobu)
Bran would leave Tsubaki to her own struggles as she would sit down in a seat in the shelter. There was another seat where she offers Nobu a place to sit. She would pull out a sheet of paper and pen. She would click the pen open and start writing some information down.

"These are pretty routine questions before I can grant access, Okay? So please bear with me." She had a very upbeat tone and an accent common to the Hoshi area.

"Let's start with why you've decided to come to Hoshi? Do you have any business, visiting or seeking new residence?" She'd continue after those are answered. "Are you currently affiliated with any other villages? Are you seeking any kind of asylum from a current village or organization?"


After the questions were finished and answered, Bran would stand up and shake Nobu's hand and welcome him into the village. However, if there was a problem with one of the answers, Bran would have to continue with the investigation.

Tsubaki's AP Stuff:

Nobu would listen as Tsubaki explained what to do next. He had no qualms with going inside to answer some questions. If it got him out of the sun it would be an added benefit in his eyes. He would glance over that the boy known as Aichi one last time before they went separate ways. “I hope that you find what you are looking for.” Nobu would offer up right before the former sand shinobi would follow Bran into where the guards would stay when there was little traffic. It was a small room, but he could see how it would fit the needs of the guards on duty.
 
Bran would sit, offering Nobu a seat as well. He would sit, respectfully waiting as the guard got ready to ask the questions. He would nod silently, agreeing to answer whatever it was she was going to ask, routine or not. He had nothing to hide, nor any desire to do such. He simply wanted a place to get a meal, a shower and shave, and a nice bed to lay on for a few days. If offered, he would gladly accept one of the snacks Tsubaki had seemed to provide. It wasn’t much as far as a proper meal goes, but it would be far better than nothing at all. He could almost feel his stomach twisting as it seemingly tried to eat itself.
 
“If you are asking why I am here, honestly it was by dumb luck. I found this place purely by accident,” He would glance up at Bran with a faint smile on his face, “But I am grateful that I found myself here with such company.” He would place his hand on the table, resting the other on his leg. “But that doesn’t entirely answer your question, does it? My apologies. You can mark down that I am simply visiting this beautiful place. If permitted, I’ll spend some time here to get my bearings and then head back out on the road. It is unlikely that I will find my peace here. My place is beside my master, wherever he may be.”
 
The second question was one that he had already answered, yet he understood their reasons for being thorough. “I am formerly a shinobi of Sunagakure, before its takeover by Kumogakure. Prior to that, I was a wandering shinobi after losing the village of my birth, Amegakure.” He would break eye contact, glancing over at the door. “It would seem that I am an omen of ill fortune to any place that I call home. All the more reason for my visit here to be brief. I wouldn’t want whatever dark cloud looms over me to claim this place next.” He would return his eyes to Bran, her uplifting spirit a pleasant reprieve from his own feelings of despair regarding his own shortcomings and the hand that fate decided to deal him. “I am not affiliated with any current villages or organizations, and I don’t believe that anyone that might still be around in Suna would still be looking for me.” He would take a bite of the snack bar, making sure to chew thoroughly and swallow before quickly apologizing, “Please forgive my manners. It has been some time since I have eaten anything this good.” With that said, he would continue answering Bran’s questions to his best ability. “I have kept a very low profile for many years now. Any of my former Suna comrades that also took up Kumo’s offer to leave are either dead by now, or believe me to be so. Your village should have no fear of reprisal for permitting me to stay here temporarily.”
 
If that was all that was needed and Bran stood and offered her hand Nobu would rise grasp it to shake. “I thank you for your hospitality.”

Aichi closed his eyes as Tsubaki prepared to transport him. He offered no resistance, in fact he was crying. Aichi was in part terribly afraid of jail again, and the other part of his fear was based on the unknown. Despite his transformation nearing its completion, Aichi knew that there were more variables he would have to climb over during this visit to Hishigakure.

Softly weeping Aichi became locked in by Tsubaki. He was unable to move, and his fate was sealed. Aichi would be escorted into the village where he would be detained for a time. He imagined the village would be curious of his growth, and any information he may have picked up in his 8 plus year absence.

As the tears streamed down his face Aichi began transforming further. Soon in full form the black skinned Berserker was wailing. His sense nature energy infused flesh was rippling while the distorted sound of crying came.from him. Aichi would be alright, and he knew it. However that didnt mean he was capable of containing himself. Between excitement to pay his respects to his home village, pay his origin story a visit once more, and have access to a store; there was a lot of mixed emotions that derailed his minds focus. Many reasons to cry.

Aichi held no resistance to Tsubaki as she walked over to him using the walking on water technique. She bound his arms with thick cold cuffs. As she did, she noticed the boy was sobbing silently, streams of tears formed down his chin and landing in the muddy pool that he was trapped in. Tsubaki took no pleasure in this, knowing this kid was scared. She couldn't find the words to comfort him at the moment. She hoped that inside, Ayato or someone else she trusted would be able to help him out. 

Tsu took him past the gates and into the village and straight into here prisoner would be kept. She was nervous for a berserker moment but it didn't come at that moment. 

----------------------------------------------

Bran marked down Nobu as a visitor that possed no immediate threats. Content with his answers and his mannerism, she would shake Nobu's hand and lead him into the village where he could visit the village as he pleased.
