Sorain sat in the middle of a large lake. It was one that he had found completely by accident but has been using as a place to mediate ever since. This place was peacefull, very easy for him to stay focused on his inner chi. He breathed in and out very deeply and let his mind slip away. One side of his mind focused only on breathing and keeping his body alive leaving the other side free to contimplate the world from an enlightened view. As he breathed his chakra molded around him causing the water to swirl, something that he never knew happened for when he opened his eyes it would stop. Sorain tried to do this at least once a day but he knew that one day he would have to leave this village, and the lake. His breath was hidden behind a surgical blue mask that he often wore, this was a symbol to his devotion to the medical arts. He looked very peaceful sitting their motionless. One with the water.
Mikaru walked along the barren path. It was an old obscure path, covered by undergrowth over the years, but traces of it's use still stood. Curious by nature she naturally followed the path, wondering if she would find anything interesting on her voyage. She Moved silently, not even the leaves under her feet made any sort of noise as she trodded on. Looking up ahead she noticed the path widened into some sort of cleaning and she push on forwards. As She reached the end, her eyes beheld a beautiful scene. It was a large Crystal clear lake, seemingly untouched by most humans and surrounded by beautiful foilage, some even bursting with color and life. Her eyes scanned the water, ripples washed a shore in even intervals and she found herself entranced by the simplicity of it. She then spotted someone, a male, sitting peacefully on the waters surface. Jumping she landed without a sound on the water, gliding over as if she weighed no more than air it self before reaching him. "It's odd, to see someone in the middle of a place that looks as if it has been untouched by humans for years." She noticed the Medical mask right away and smiled, something they had in common. "Ah.... Do you work at the hospital in town?" She asked, her inverted eyes kind. Her pale body looked lifeless other than the expression and life in her eyes, Stitches littering her body and her raven hair so long it blew in the wind.
Sorain's high slowly drifted back into reality, like waking from a dream, or rather falling back into one. His left eye opened to few the girl standing in front of him. The sunlight behind her head made her face hard to see, it was a mere shadow with shoulders. He closed his eyes again to let out the last bit of air he had left in his body and to think, how did she sneak up on me? Sorain squinted his eyes to be able to see her face, but surprisingly he did not even comment on the stitches, in the world of Shinobi was anything all the surprising anymore? Could anything be classified as strange or out of the norm when they were in fact sitting and standing on water as if they had some kind of divine power that only god possessed? Sorain sighed, looks like the enlightened effect of meditation had yet to wear off. He rolled his neck around to get the kinks out and the pressed his hands onto to the water with little effort sending him silently up to his feet. His white pale eyes glowed in the background of his long silver hair that ran to his chest. "Yes well, I found this place over a year ago. You are the first soul that I have seen here besides a few misfits who I had to put in their place" He said. His bandanna with the mist symbol began to fall, instantly he fixed it before she could see his forehead.. and what was marked their. He frowned for a moment and then spoke,"How did you get here? Better yet, how did you get so close to me?" he questioned. He did feel a bit embarrassed that he was so easily snuck on, normally no one ever got the jump on him ever."and no, I would never lower myself so much as to serve at that place of conformist. I free lance, I use my medical services to whom ever I feel deserves them at the time" This was big talk coming from someone who still has yet to learn any of the medical skills that he clamed.
She watched as he slowly opened his eyes, almost as if he were awaking from some deep Slumber. Hey inverted eyes took in his every movement and she merely watched as he scrutinized her. Listening to his questions she mulled her answers over, giving a thoughtful look before slowly answering him. "Well, you were in a pretty deep meditation, perhaps you were just too Um, into it to notice?" She smiled, not wanting to necessarily give away her strengths to some stranger. "And I followed a path... It was a bit unused and overgrown, but it was still there. I was merely curious as to where it led." She smiled, although it wasn't a smile with much feeling behind it. Messing around with her chakra at the tips of her fingers she drew different shapes in the air. "And a someone who practices the medical arts, typically aide's those in need... if not to help the person than to help them build their skills. I can understand not wanting to save someone who is deemed 'evil', however who are we to judge people? Medical ninja are all ninja who are given the gift to heal the wounded. Isn't it best to use your gift to it's full extent so you may grow more?" Looking at him seriously she tilted her head only slightly before posing him with another question, "What is your name? And for what reason are you a ninja? More importantly, why did you choose to pursue the life of a Medical ninja?" Turning on her heel she started walking towards the shore, although her movements were so fluid it seemed more like gliding.
Sorain looked at her swift movements, it shocked him for a moment, he had never met anyone more light on their feet than he was, this made him instantly smug towards her, even though he was old enough to be an adult(17) he still lingered in a teenagers mind, which was petty. Meditation could not change that part of him, but it would help him hide it for the time being. Sorain smerked and took one step that landed him halfway to the shore,"I shall answer your questions one at a time if you do me the honer of allowing me to interogate you" He said as he reached the shore. He did not step onto the ground however, he had no intention of leaving the water, he felt comfortable standing on water than he was on land, which was odd because he had never shown any signs of a water affinity."First, I did not say I did not aid the evil, I bealive the word I used was conformist. I was not referring to the patiens, I refured to the medics their. The bastards who help people as a job rather than a calling. Do you know that if you were in their dieing from a heart attack and the Mizukage came in with an injured arm, legally they have to tend to him first(this is a law that proteins to the U.S president IRL) I refuse to be part of such a thing. I aid those who I deem deserve my healing. This means if their is a grown man anbu wounded from an attack, and alittle girl who has a sprained ankel. I shall help the little girl, because that is my choice, that is whom I deem is worthy of being healed at the time. " He spoke while looking at her, not blinking at all, not even changing the expression on his face."My name is Hyuuga Sorain, and to answer your question simply I choose to be a ninja because I felt as though I am a man who is physically able to aid people, so not doing so would be a waste of a valuable life. But do not mistake, I am a medic but I have no since of good from evil. I will aid and heal, but I will also kill if necessary. I have no allegiances."
1,000 candles can be lit from a single flame and the life of the fire shall not be reduced. Like fire, kindness can be spread forever.
She smirked and nodded "Alright, that sounds like a deal, although I'm not quite sure how many answers I can give..." Listening to his responses she raised an eyebrow. "I can understand wanting to have a say in who you lend your aid to, but if you had to choose between a dying man or a sprain of a little girls ankle, you would still help the girl? I can admire your goals and thoughts on the matter, but perhaps you should think of other situations in which you would be forced to choose who you heal." She sat down at the shore, laying down on her back and watching the clouds. "The most important thing in being a medical ninja, in my opinion... Is to try and stay as neutral as possible. And if you are indeed a ninja from this country, how can you say you have no allegiances? You must have some sort of pride from being from Mist, would you not Aid your country in battle if it was requested of you?" She looked over to him, her inverted eyes watching him carefully. In the past few weeks she had been in Mist, she realized how diverse the ninja here were, and how much potential many of them showed. "The best thing to do, is follow your will. Most people think of most Ninja as ruthless and heartless killing machine, but everyone has something important to them. True, it can be a weakness, but I think in the right circumstances it's a force that drives people even harder to obtain their goals." She sighed and closed her eyes. "Regardless, you had questions for me did you not?" Opening her eyes slightly she looked to him again one eyebrow slightly raised in curiosity.
Sorain stopped to think for a moment before speaking in a calm tone,"First, let me answer this for you. Yes, I was born in the mist village and I do have pride in that. But I do not by any circomstances consider myself automaticly alligned to them. I never chose to be born here, I like it here. But I did not choose it, simply because my family spawned me here does not mean that I am alligned to this village. I am neutrial, if a war were to break out I would help whom I deemed worthy. If the mist village attacked a village that was already weak, I would fight and die to stop them. I am a man of my princeables." He said and got comfertable,"first, your name? What was it? and seccond" he paused,"Why are you here? You are not from this village I dont think, Ive never seen you here and besides. Your chakra flow much diffrent than others around.." he noticed her eyes for the first time. They were inverted, this interested sorain more than anything,"What are you?" he questioned.
She smiled some, a Ninja after her own heart. She could well understand why he thought this way, she felt the same way herself which is why most of the time she either traveled with her friends or her lover, Hatari. She looked down slightly before bringing up the hospital situation again. "If you do want to learn about the Medical arts, you can learn a lot from Volunteering at Hospitals. That way you would not be considered staff or have to tend to someone a staff person might. You can help whoever you want." She stopped and listened to his questions, answering them one by one. "My Name is Mikaru, I am here because I choose to be. I am not aligned towards any village, I merely wander. I suppose my Chakra has a right to be different from others. I have been in situations that have probably altered my chakra more than anyones. And What am I?" She laughed slightly at this question. "I am a monster. Something that defies the natural law and that should technically not exist. However, there are those that seek to defy god... and in situations like that, monsters like me are born. I suppose my repulsive outward appearance reflects what I have become, I wasn't always this disgusting. But lately, I really find I don't care much for my outward appearance and now I am merely on a mission to get stronger to protect those whom I have promised" She stretched some on the ground, her Robe like Kimono splaying around her some as some air escaped from her joints, allowing them to crack.
"No" he began,"You are not a monstar, No one in this world can decide what is evil or good. Their is no such thing. Good and Bad are mearly what you decide to call it. Does not a theif consider the police to be bad? You follow your path, that is all that one in this world can be expected to do" he said,"As for your chakra flow, I dont think that it is due to that. I mearly pointed out that you have a higher level than any of the females I have noticed here. He folded his legs into his medditation position,"And I do not intend to volontear their. I do not intend to learn my medical skills from anyone who works there. Anyone who does not see the mediconal world the way I do I shall not learn from them. I will find my own way." He pulled out a blank scroll from his sleave and unwrapped it,"It is emptey now. By the day I die this will be filled with every medical skill I learn, so that I may teach the world my ways" he said and put it away. He raised his head a bit to get a better look at her,"Despite the monstar you see in yourself you look like a kind soul, although I dont think that you are without your sin" he said looking down to the water,"You must forgive me, after meddiation my mind is clear, and I can read someone with these eyes based on the movements of yours. Your eyes say that you are a kind soul who wishes to only be loved, but you have done some things...maybe around some bad people. In any case do not fret, when dealing with me their is no such word as evil. Nor good for that matter"
She smiled somewhat sincerely "Ah you misunderstood me. By Monster, I didn't mean something evil, Rather I meant something that should not exist because of the laws of Nature. However I do suppose Ninja will always find and create techniques that defy those laws. It's Admirable, your determination to learn the healing arts your own way.. However don't you think while learning from some you may also show them your veiws on things? Perhaps you could alter their views based on your thoughts because you do seem to believe strongly in your views. She sat up. "And No one is without their sins, even some infants could be a sin in themselves for killing their mother host, although unintentionally. She heard him apologize and raised an eyebrow, "Why apologize when something such as reading people is a gift for a ninja. It's not your fault, nor do I see any need for you to apologize. As for being Loved, I feel I am already very much loved. I have someone I hold close to me who helps me strive to become strong. I have no problems with you looking into the door to my soul, for I feel that if someone has the ability to see my soul then I have nothing to hide. Although I am a fairly secretive person, I would never give away something about myself so completely personal that it is a weakness." Looking to the dirt she extended a finger, drawing mindless doodles in the sand. "I feel like I can ask you this. I need your opinion on Families, and starting them for that matter." Looking up she smirked "I... have a decision I need to make, and I need guidance and other peoples views before I make my final decision. "
Sorain still had the same calm and expressionless face he always had when he was feeling enlightned,"Allow me to quote myself" he began,"This is something that I once told my own mother, who told me a similar thing." He closed his eyes so that he could put himself back into the same postion he was then," If I have to change someone elses thinking for them to think the same way as me then they do not truly belaive in my ideals. In life you are born not knowing anything, you are born belaiving only what your family teaches you. Your ideals about god, law, life. Everything is determined for you, everything is decided. Buy at some point you have to break away and find your own path, some choose to follow suit, some choose to change their ideals all together but the fact is, at birth your ideals are set for you. How ever this is nessicary, a child without guidance is doomed to be lost, but that is just it. Your ideals can only be determined for you once, after which you must make your choices on your own. If I influence someone else then they are not following my path on their own accord, they are doing it because I swayed them. No, I shall never try to convert anyone. I shall never allow my influsnce to change anyones path. I will teach those who seek the knowledge and those only." he stopped and pondered her question,"I would be happy to show you my veiws on anything you wish. What exactly do you want me to tell you about?" he stopped and sighed,"Family is a vage topic, please be more spacific"
Sorain paused to think about her question and produce a worth while answer,"I am please that you decided to talk to me while I was in meditation for I could never do you the justice of a intelligent conversation if I was not" he added,"Well I shall answer personally then I will answer generally, personally I think family is very important, I will one start a family on my own if all goes according to plan. Starting a family is something that everyone should have aspiration for. In order to maintain the world new generations must be created, we cant live forever. Our legacy is all that we shall have left after this world, why not leave it with a child. Someone who could be all that you were and so much more, someone whom you could love and have it love you back. Some might say that Shinobi are strong, and that to gain power brings happiness, I say having the joy of watching your seed grow into an adult, to see him or her do everything you wish you could have. That is how the world continues, that is why over time people become stronger. Because a strong mans biggest wish, rather he knows it or not, is for his son to be stronger. This is pride, this is harratage, that is family" He said thinking about his own family,"But of course, I am of a clan. We value family a great deal, so now allow me to answer you generally. Gernally there is nothing worse than a mother bringing a child into the world that is not wanted. If you do have second thoughts at all then it is unfair to bring that child into such a world. You have to be ready, you have to be devoted, no second thoughts. Of course in the imperfect world we live in this is hardly reality but that does not mean you should not strive to do things right. Bring the child into a family that loves and cares for it, not one that has second thoughts... and to answer your first question, I do not believe in destiny, I believe in determination. I could argue that my destiny is to become the greatest medic alive, but i could be killed right now if you chose to. No, our world is to uncertain to make bets with such high stakes. No, I will become great because I am dertimened, not because it was predicated, not because some high ruler in the sky decided to take pity on my soul and allow me to become great. No, I will get their with my own two hands."

Sorain paused to think about her question and produce a worth while answer,"I am please that you decided to talk to me while I was in meditation for I could never do you the justice of a intelligent conversation if I was not" he added,"Well I shall answer personally then I will answer generally, personally I think family is very important, I will one start a family on my own if all goes according to plan. Starting a family is something that everyone should have aspiration for. In order to maintain the world new generations must be created, we cant live forever. Our legacy is all that we shall have left after this world, why not leave it with a child. Someone who could be all that you were and so much more, someone whom you could love and have it love you back. Some might say that Shinobi are strong, and that to gain power brings happiness, I say having the joy of watching your seed grow into an adult, to see him or her do everything you wish you could have. That is how the world continues, that is why over time people become stronger. Because a strong mans biggest wish, rather he knows it or not, is for his son to be stronger. This is pride, this is harratage, that is family" He said thinking about his own family,"But of course, I am of a clan. We value family a great deal, so now allow me to answer you generally. Gernally there is nothing worse than a mother bringing a child into the world that is not wanted. If you do have second thoughts at all then it is unfair to bring that child into such a world. You have to be ready, you have to be devoted, no second thoughts. Of course in the imperfect world we live in this is hardly reality but that does not mean you should not strive to do things right. Bring the child into a family that loves and cares for it, not one that has second thoughts... and to answer your first question, I do not believe in destiny, I believe in determination. I could argue that my destiny is to become the greatest medic alive, but i could be killed right now if you chose to. No, our world is to uncertain to make bets with such high stakes. No, I will become great because I am dertimened, not because it was predicated, not because some high ruler in the sky decided to take pity on my soul and allow me to become great. No, I will get their with my own two hands."
