Okay so what is there to do for ninjas? One of the most common thing is to train. Yuffie was the greatest ninja ever but even the best had to train. 

Today’s training: stealth.

Yuffie wanted to see how far she could go following the woman without being noticed. It wasn’t hard at first. The streets were busy and it was easy to hide behind the adults. It wasn’t until the other had gone into an area where every noise made an echo. While the other walked, her footsteps echoed, making it harder for the girl to follow. 

Yuffie tried to tip-toe her way around but it was too late. She landed on a leaf and crunch! The sound of felt like a loud glass shatter to the girl was heard. 

“Eep!” Yuffie ran to the nearest item and crouched behind it. Of course her footsteps created a pattering noise. Her cover was blown, the little ninja failed her training.

She was oblivious for a while-- after all, it was not everyday that she gets followed.  

There she was, going about her day when a nagging feelings bites at her. Crimson eyes look around, gauging the surroundings. Was someone watching her? It could not be-- why would anybody do that? They would get no money or any sort of precious item out of her. 

Trusting her instincts, she moves, weaving through the crowd. The PK-user then gets an idea-- heading further downtown, she moves to a much less crowded area, one that less busier than the rest of the streets.

Hearing the sound of a leaf being crushed underfoot, she quickly turns, getting a small glimpse of her follower.

{ W-why are you following me?! Who are you? }

“Saki!” Before he had even said her name, Satoru had slammed right into her, running from nothing. Or rather running because he had found nothing, no sign or anything familiar to them. 

“We’re way outside the holy barrier? What’s going on? Last thing I remember we were running from those queerats and now…” Satoru scratched his head and gave one of his typical shrugs which meant she should come up with the answer. Back then she was still the brains of their little duo. How else would he have gotten back his cantus without her help. 

[healingcantus-blog]

Crimson eyes stared with wonder and confusion as Saki stood still in the middle of the big city. The structures were remarkable, like they could swallow her up any time. It was a little bit scary, but she kept her cool-- unlike her companion.

{ Satoru! } she always, always said his name-- out of slight annoyance and a bit of endearment. She felt him crash into her, the force almost toppling both of them to the ground. { Hey! I-I don’t where we are, but I think we’re safe now? } All she saw were humans, no queerats. { I think it’s best if we find a good hiding place, though. This place is big. C’mon you slowpoke, } she pulls him, egging him to run once more.

She normally never really showed a sign of fear so easily, but when she was crossing a street and a car horn sounded, she’d gotten so frightened that she’d clung to the nearest individual, wrapping her arms around them and not going to let go anytime soon. 

Her whole frame was trembling, and for the next few moments she’d forget where she was. Those metal beasts roaming the streets were scary, and Nyarani did NOT want to have anything to do with them. 

     “….Are they attacking? Is it over? What were those things?!”

[healingcantus-blog]

Saki eventually got used to urban life. The dirt roads, the flora and fauna of back home were but a hazy memory to her. She greatly missed it, but the city had a charm of its own: the lights, the cityscape, the people--

The psychokinetic felt somebody cling onto her-- the poor thing held onto her waist for dear life. Shocked, it took a few moments for her before she could utter a response. 

{ Those vehicles? They’re called cars, } she finally says. { A-are you okay though? Learning how to cross the street is rather vital in a place like this. }

He knew it. He knew he shouldn’t have used his Suna Suna no mi powers while it was windy outside and he should’ve listened to that feeling. Sands scattering through the wind, he felt the grains collide with someone. Reforming, he frowned at the person he’d hit, mound beginning to even out across his face.

“"Shit.”

[healingcantus-blog]

It was a nice, breezy day outside. Gone were the days where she had to be cooped up in her office, drowning in papers and other documents. Her favourite part of her job back home definitely was going outside for research data-- but researching was not part of her agenda right now. She was merely out for stroll when--

-- Grains of sand buffeted her, taking her by surprise. There were no any deserts nearby, were there? { A-ah! } she squealed. { A-are you-- I’m sorry..? } Her expression was riddled with confusion.

To get a dizzy spell and feel faint in the middle of a crosswalk was kind of a problem, honestly. He managed to cross safely, however, but had to lean against a light pole to support his weight. 

…He was fine. 

Still, to a passerby, he’d raise his voice in question.

     “Is there anywhere nearby…that I can sit down? I’m a little….tired.”

With a display of concern, Saki turns to the stranger. The weather did not seem like it could cause dizzy spells or anything of the like, so she could not determine the cause as of yet. 

Softly, she places a hand on the boy’s shoulder. { Here, there’s a bench nearby, } supporting him, they make their way to the bench and she sets him down.

{ What’s wrong? Have you been walking around all day? }

Satoru watched as she drifted back down, though still her feet were only hovering at his head. He felt like she was just playing with him now, though it wouldn’t be the first time she held a higher position in their conversations. Rarely was it quite so literal.

He looked up to her, nodding for his answer. “That is what is seems. I’ve noticed other tents also occupied. This should be large enough for both of us.” He knelt down to open it up and crouch inside. They had done much worse then a tent like this. Satoru’s mind drifted, wondering if that cave they once spend the night in still had it’s stains. Probably not the best to think about…

The girl eyes him from above as he inspected the tent. While it was true that they had company nearby, it only made her feel even more alien. It is known that Saki was a very approachable person and she herself loved meeting new people, but if the latter was not willing to interact with a stranger like her...that was another story.

Her thoughts drifted and it was only then she realized that her line of sight was directed at her husband’s behind as he was crouched.

Out of habit, she clears her throat whilst looking away. Finally letting herself land, she notices their fellow district residents staring, wary of the newcomers. Hopefully they were staring at them and not at where she was looking.

{ -- We’ve had a long day, Satoru. Let’s get some rest, } her voice was soft. Saki was certainly glad that they were united and she wanted nothing more than to feel him beside her as they turned in.

He nodded and moved with her on the ground, jogging to keep up. Flying was faster but even if he could do it, he was unsure of his skills at that type of cantus manipulation. Once they crossed over the border into the next distinct, the change in the sky made it apparent.

“Alright, this must be the place. We are getting close to where we should be.” He signaled for her to drop down again. It didn’t look safe to fly here, not near so many crumbling structures. Actually they should both be careful. Satoru dashed under an archway, even though it gave no sign on falling. There were tents set up in many spots, some clearly occupies but others looked vacant. Were they supposed to chose one? Satoru kept going before he found one with only open air above it. It would be colder, but safer from falling debris. “Here, this will work.”

Hovering above, it was truly a sight to see the horizon change its appearance before her very eyes. Feeling the wind in her hair made the experience even more otherworldly. It felt nice-- like she wanted to stay up there for a little while longer.

Saki saw the tents set up as well as its inhabitants. There was nothing too peculiar just yet. She watches Satoru as he jogged through the vicinity, following him above. She does not see his signal.

{ Are we gonna fit in that tent? } She asks, her tone playful. It was a plain fact that Satoru was a larger person compared to Saki. She then lowers herself til she’s about five feet above the ground, right beside her husband. { So...this is it. }

[ Σ ]—— She’s quick to show her silent agreement to help him up by acting on it, and Hibiki has to give a hum of acknowledge. “Thank you,” he breathes out before letting out a gasp, the very process of moving his body shaking his injury and causing him new pain. It feels like his whole arm has been ripped off from his shoulder when they’re finally standing, so much that he feels his consciouness flicker occasionally. Although he’s hard headed in his convinctions, his body had never reached a high level of resistance to pain.

      His other senses become numb as a result, prompting him to answer her question only when a window of leniency appears to him. “I don’t know where it is,” he tells her a bit shakily. Hospital… knowing how this place is filled with mindless murderers and backstabbers, Hibiki is pretty wary of such places where he’d have to entrust his body to a doctor. However, such an injury won’t heal by itself, and his knowledge of medicine is pretty limited to basics.

      “We should look for a map, or ask around. I hope we won’t have to travel all the way there through sectors…” He pauses, looking down at his jeans pocket. Hopefully his phone remained intact in the incident. “Do you think an ambulance will come if we called it? Then again, what would their number in the city be?”

They move slowly. Saki struggles slightly whenever all of his weight is put on her, but she does not complain. She finds herself wishing that she had the strong, athletic build that Satoru had-- her lithe form could only hold up so much and Cantus was their way of going about their everyday life, which included lifting various things.

His pauses drag longer, suggesting that maybe it was not the best idea to make him stand up so soon. However, laying on the street was not an option either-- it did not seem like they had any other choice. Saki did not know which part of the city they were in exactly, and if the city had any sort of medical establishment at all. If it had, she had yet to come across such. She does not mention this, though, opting to not have him feel more unease.

There were many things about this place that were still unknown to her. Asking was the most viable solution, it seemed-- Saki had yet to figure out how to really operate a cellular device. { I’ll ask around, } she replies.

It took a while before they encountered a friendly-looking passerby. They directed them to the nearest hospital and they even helped Saki out with the injured male-- much to her gratitude.

He narrows his eyes. He’s not judging her, he’s not frowning… but what she’s given him is an answer. It puts his feet to moving, and he doesn’t gesture for her to follow, trusting that she’ll come if she wants to.

But he looks back over his shoulder before he speaks.

‘Not at all.’ He glances up, where buildings tower over their heads. With a touch of irony, he adds, ‘This might be what the future looks like.’

He smiles wryly, but there’s something. Maybe it’s her question, maybe it’s how she introduced herself – whatever it may be, he continues.

‘Your wouldn’t isn’t like this either.’ The Saniwa looks across at her, and she is always on the edge of his vision. ‘What makes it so different?’

{ The future, huh... } The city is actually a portrait of the past for her-- people have reverted to living in a closed-off way of life way before her parents begat her. Reports of the Dark Age were scarce and not much was said, except that infrastructure and international communication collapsed. Saki did not want to give him a history lesson, though. 

She follows, trailing a few feet behind him. { From the people to the look of the buildings....everything is different here, } she remembers the culture shock when she first arrived. { I’m slowly getting used to it though, um... } she holds her gaze. { I don’t think I caught your name yet? My name’s Saki. }

▉ : IT’S RAINING SOMEWHERE ELSE

leghero:

    — [ ♡ ] PUDDLES ARE INEVITABLE WITH downpour like this. From the touch of his heels they ripple, crying tears of their own, and every step feels like the static shock of brushing arms with a stranger. The sparks do fly. He tries as much as possible to get them out of her eyes. They simmer all quiet in the puddles below him, and they are the fear within him that he isn’t going to make it down the street. Fried circuits are far, far worse than drained batteries.

    [ ♥ ] “Correct! Bravo! I never would have guessed! Ahhh. It’s so sad. I haven’t been able to find my new home at all. Do you mind helping me, darling? Splendid. I have the feeling that this is gonna be an adventure.” 

    He’d always had the habit of answering his own questions, but he’s meant to be self-sufficient, isn’t he? After all, he is a robot. Unfortunately, he’s a robot without a map.

Surveying eyes noted the bright sparks that fly out of his body. Saki knew not if she should feel concerned-- after all, machines were not a thing of her time. In fact, they were things of the past. She even doubted that he was something like a False Minoshiro. Despite the sparks, he showed no signs of malfunctioning so far. Which, she hoped, would stay that way. 

The rain continues to pour.

She was not given a chance to retort but she did not mind helping the other. After all, bumping into new citizens happened a lot these days. { An adventure, you think? } she ponders. { If that’s the case-- my name is Saki! I don’t think we can go on and venture if we don’t know each other. }

It was always a wonderful sight to see her fly, reminding him of their lost friends as well. He could see the way she had learned from Maria, trying to imitate her image. Hovering at first, before gliding away peacefully. It had been so long since he had see her fly with such determined grace rather then fearful determination to escape the friend. 

“Look for ruins, I believe there were some impressive arches. The district is all old architecture.” Of course they held a different concept of what was aged building design, but Satou knew that Saki had studied the archives with equal wonder as him. She would know what they were looking for.

It takes her a second to recall what exactly the architecture of old looked like. Arches, he says. Squinting her eyes at the last rays of sunlight, she makes out the silhouette of some arches in the distance. She could see the shadows of some kind of monuments as well.

{ I think I see it, } she calls. Whatever relief she felt, there was also nervousness. What if the living conditions were not apt for them? Would Satoru-- they be alright? No, I can’t be like this, Saki waves the negativity off with the shake of her head. What mattered was that they would survive together. That was enough.

{ Here, this way! } She glides to the east, to the direction of their new home.

Satoru kept moving as his wife voiced her concerns. He held them the same as her but would refuse to let them show. “Maybe. Depends on if we want to get back here or not. The ice cream was interesting but maybe we can try something else next time.” Something more filling.

As they wandered Satoru started to feel lost though it could have just been because everything here was new. There was no way they could be lost until they were found. he had found her, and not neither of them would lose each other along the way.

“Think of it like when we explored the wild with the others.” Ah he felt a pang upon mentioning them. “It’s just like that time… Even if our cantus is weak, theirs is strong and their spirits will always stay with us.” As they approached a center square of a new area, Satrou looked to the distance to see the last rays of sunlight careening into the ground. “Here, Saki use your flight to point in a direction. It should be a area east of here if you use the sun. Now is out last chance before dark.”

She begged to differ with the ice cream-- she honestly liked it. She wanted to try the colorful flavors next time. She can try them all for the duration of her stay in the city-- she would keep this from Satoru for now, though. Now was not the time to express her new-found fondness for the dessert.

As he mentions the past, a wave of nostalgia washes over her. They were so young back then. They arrived to a more spacious part of the city, the last rays of light hitting the pavement.

{ Alright, } she nods and closes her eyes, gathering her thoughts and feeling her feet lift from the ground. She remembers Maria once more, how gracefully she glided through the air. Flying would never fail to make her remember her.

Once she was a few feet in the air, she turns to the east. { What am I looking for, exactly? } she calls down to him. It was almost dark but she could still make out certain buildings.

[ Σ ]—— “Don’t mention it.” He frees a sigh out of his pained lips, eyes fixed to the sky above. Laying there would have been peaceful if not for the urban surroundings, the intermittent noises and the injury that threatens to steal his consciousness. 

      The girl asks something of him next, and it registers a few beats later. Can he stand up? Really, at this rate he could get kicked out for disturbing the traffic in spite of the incident. Faceless mobs in particular aren’t very kind to those who disrupt their repetitive mundanity, no matter the context. Gritting his teeth and shutting his eyes, Hibiki uses his uninjuried arm as a leverage to support the rest of his body.

      “I suppose we shouldn’t sit around for long… I’m not sure about my feet, but they’re not hurting, so I should be fine.” Even so, using only one arm is a difficult task. He finally turns his gaze to the girl, the blurry vision making it a little hard for him to define her features in detail. “I know you’ve been roughed up too, but I hope you can give me a hand?”

Saki had the urge to belt out more apologies, but she bit her tongue and told herself to wait. The ebb of guilt was still there but she waved them off for now and focused on the injured male. 

His expression was still one of pain and unease. She asks her question the a millisecond of fear rushes to her when his reply did not come soon after. His eyes were glassy and unfocused for a moment-- and it brought her relief when he finally does answer her. 

Using his arm to lift himself, he turns to face her. Half-lidded eyes met crimson as the blare of the traffic and people continued around them. Without an answer, Saki moves and places his uninjured arm around her shoulders, supporting him. Slowly, she stands, getting him on his feet. 

{ Where is the nearest hospital? Should we head there? }
