Alkaid was making her way to the gatehouse to in order to relieve the guards for the next shift. Her outfit was similar to what she had worn the other day just with slightly different colors. On her head was a a golden hairpin, a black face mask that covered up to the bridge of her nose and a dull red flowing scarf.
On her torso she wore a simple sleeveless kimono that ended in a low cut skirt, its color a shade of purple almost verging on blue, inspired by Yomi’s trade mark trench coat. Holding it together was A gray obi with overlaid with her forehead protected in the center. It severed as a belt with two pouches attached to it as well as holsters for her bone white swords. Over her hands where a pair of purple pink finger-less gloves that ran past her elbows.
A flashy katana and wakizashi hung from her hips, drawing the eye to the black thigh high stockings underneath them, tucked into a pair of rain boots that matched the color of her kimono. She was the very picture of a modest Kunoichi.
She arrived just as Yomi was name dropping herself, breaking into a wide grin under her mask as she ran over to the taller woman her eyes practically sparkling with admiration. “Fool don’t you know who this is? It’s the Rouge of the mist herself, one of the strongest among our rank and definitely the most badass.” exclaimed Alkaid, her tone admonishing.
“Forgive his rudeness, he obviously doesn’t know greatness when he sees it.” said Alkaid with a long suffering sigh as she gave Yomi a light bow. “You probably don’t remember me but I’m Alkaid, nice to meetcha.” she said, as she nervously held out a hand for Yomi to shake.
“Sorry to bother you like this Yomi-sama but do you got a moment? I’ve been meaning to speak to you every since we ran off that red clad fellow.” she requested. Ever since that day when she had saw first hand Yomi’s strength the elder girl had been her hero and role model. She was an ideal candidate for the project Alkaid had in mind, namely reviving the seven swordsman of the mist.
“To answer your question the old man’s in the hospital.” she said. It was a rude way to address Nikuyo but anybody could tell who she was referring to. “The Village Council appointed a new interim Mizukage.” she said this loudly for the benfit for Kotsubo who was just now catching up.
“Sensai!” she exclaimed happily as she ran over to him, her arms held out wide as she attempted to glomp onto him with a full fledged hug straight to his torso. “You’ve been gone so long, I was beginning to worry you wouldn’t come back.” she exclaimed, tears of relief spilling from her eyes.
