"It's been hours ok? Just stop already, we sort of need to continue." Ikkus huffed. “Ok, I’ve killed them all,” Imikamaru said, “We can leave now.” Just then kaze walked out with 3 things; A fruit the size of his hand, a big bird, and a person of unknown race. "Kaze, how, why and what the Gods did you do. You got explaining to do." Ikkus said with a growl. “Kaze, who’s that,” Imikamaru asked. "Dunno, found her on the ground,'' Kaze said, passing out from exhaustion. Ikkus muttered quietly to theirself before saying, "... she is badly injured, I guess I can heal her up… Still, I don't trust any strangers here…"

“We can ask questions then heal her I guess,” Imikamaru suggested. As the little girl gained consciousness she said, "where am I, he's not here is he?" "No one's here but us," Ikkus said calmly, weaving in a Word of Charm spell, "You'll be safe here for now, we will not hurt you. We just want some truthful answers to our questions…" “What happened to you,” Imikamaru asked. “I touched my old master and he threw me out after trying to kill me,” she said with a smile. “I see…” Ikkus grumbled, mumbling to theirself before speaking “Now, does your… Master, what does he do? Dark magic… Or any similar acts…?” “He didn’t use magic. He was training me in swordsmanship,” she explained. “But, he does possess the power of the dark ones.”

"Ah, I know them…" Ikkus grumbled, "They mean no good at all. Sounds like quite the fun man, powers of the Dark Ones and a wonderful personality to match… Just down right wonderful…” “I don’t think we should bring her back to her master,” Imikamaru recommended, “He seems rude, and I don’t want to get side-tracked on another quest that won’t benefit us. So she should just come with us.”

With a big boom and a flash of light Kaze went flying into the air yelling, "I'M AWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!"

"...Good to know… Now you get the task of watching her, congratulations. Let's get on with this mess of a quest…" Ikkus muttered, already wandering off grumbling to themselves angrily.
