Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Oh, it's you. What are you doing sneaking around?" he said in almost a growl. He began to walk towards her. "Know this. I will never let anyone harm this village. You don't think I don't know what's going on? I know all about you. You're a spy for the so-called 'nice-guy' that recently came into town. Amaya, you know that I don't want to hurt you. I can't even stand to talk to you this way. It breaks my heart so many ways and times. We've been through so much together. But Amaya.... if I have to.... if it's to keep this village safe... if it's to keep the people I love so much in this village safe..." His low growl became a loud roar "....I WILL KILL YOU...."

"I am Tokugoru Kurayami. The sole survivor of the Kurayami clan. I met you when we were both 8. We were at a playground. Some kids were bullying you and pushed you off a swing. I came over and beat them away and treated your wounds. We always hung out after that....We'd eat together... we'd play together... and when you and I both finally became ninjas, we hoped we'd both be on the same squad. That didn't happen unfortunately. Then one day... you were taken away from me. I did something. apparently, that was so dispecable, that everyone in the village hated me, including your parents. They didn't allow me to see you anymore. They een threw rocks and sticks at me and called me 'Freak, Monster, Demon, Outcast'... It was so painful... Then you disappeared from the village and I never saw you again..." At this point, his head was pointed at the ground. But then he lifted his head back up, with tears at the corners of his eyes. "I've never forgotten you. I've missed you so much. And it hurts me even more to know that the one person I'd hope would acknowledge me for who I am doesn't even remember my name...."

Toku's face immediately brightened. Tears of joy sprung forth and a smile as big as the moon appeared on his face. "Of course I will, Amaya. I'm your friend and I always will be..."

He shook his head quickly. "Heh. Not anymore." He gripped his chin with his thumb and index finger. "Hmm... where should we start? .... Hey! The central building has files on everyone who's ever lived here. That means we could get in there and look up your files. And I already have a plan. We'll initiate it at night." Toku stopped for a moment. He thought he sensed another presence there. He lowered down to a barely audible whisper and got close to Amaya. "I'll tell you the plan tonight at 8:00. Meet me at the forest entrance... Besides, I have mission I need to get done. Maybe you should act like your on patrol or something. See you tonight.." He made a hand sign and disappeared in a poof of smoke.

Toku appeared at the farm and sure enough, the old man was there waiting for him. "Oh, hello there. Thanks for coming. I mighty do appreciate your help, young man." "It's no trouble sir. I'll have this finished quickly. ^_^"

At about 5:30, he was finally done. The old man asked him to come inside and rest. He'd made some sweet tea for the two of them. The two talked for a while until Toku was rested up. "I do appreciate what you did for me today, young man. Here is your reward." The old man handed him the chack in an envelope. "Thank you sir. I'm always happy to help." He then poofed away back to the mission house. "Hey man, I've got the money." He handed it to Toji. "Good job, Toku. And here is your fee." Toji then handed Toku his earnings, which, surprisingly, were quite a bit. "Wow. That old man is awesome. Well, I'm done today. Take care Toji." Toku poofed out of the house with a smirk. Toji coughed a bit then said "I REALLY wish he'd stop doing that.."

Toku saw tyhe clock. It was time to meet her. "Better go." He locked up his house and started heading over to the spot. H eventually got there quickly. "Hello! ^_^"

"Alright. What we'll do is, I'll put myself in a death-like trance for about 15 minutes. You'll say that I was trying to kill you but you got me. You'll work your way to the place in the building where files of everyone are stored. How's that sound?" he whispered to her.

"Alright, when we get about 5 meters away from the building, I'll put myself in the trance. Let's go." He started running to the building quickly and quietly.
