Thread: [Sugo & Razz]

Thunder rung out in the distant, not too far away but still loud and ominous. Thunder had its way of making sure you knew it was there, sending fear into the hearts of these who where much more weak willed. However, it had no effect on Itachi Uchiha and his companion Kisame. Thunder was a great thing for these two as most of the non-ninja would be inside, hiding from it, it gave them time to move between place to place without any disturbance, or any knowledge that figures in black cloaks with red clouds had passed through these areas. However while thunder wasn't an issue for the two the rain that came with it could be, puddles where forming along the main roads and tree branches would be slippery and painful to travel on, night was also starting to emerge. All these factors made it a wise time to settle down somewhere for the night. Itachi stood looking down at the wet ground while Kisame, a much larger man stood next to him relishing in the water running down his face. They stood on one of the larger roads that ran through the land of fire as if waiting to decide on what to do, do they keep going until they can find somewhere proper to stay for the night or do they find a cave or something along those lines. Kisame. Itachi said quietly, his voice emotionless as he spoke, the rain had forced Itachi to wear his robe up as apposed to his preference of wearing it open slightly, all that could be seen of him where his sandels and a small amount of the fabric of his trousers, the rest hidden underneath the black cloak with red clouds, a statement of a piece of clothing. He wore his headband as per usual around his head with a deep cut through the Konoha symbol. His hair was dry however, thanks to the straw hat that he wore atop his head funneling the rain water off of him and onto the ground, Kisame's attire wasn't much different despite for the Kiri symbol he'd sliced through instead. Traveling during this rain is pointless. Itachi said in the same emotionless tone walking across the wet ground slightly as if testing it, the mud from the path pulling up under his feet making even chakra enhanced steps treacherous. We should spend the rest of the day looking for.. he was cut off as Kisame grabbed his shoulder turning him towards something further down the road, a lone figure running at a good pace, a ninja's pace, down the road towards them. I see. Itachi said, considerate for the fact Kisame interrupted him only because it was relevant that he did, Kisame and Itachi without a shared word both jumped to either side of the road and up into the tree tops, hopefully before the oncoming figure could see them and prepare for them and then waited. No more than 30 seconds later the figure started to come along to where Itachi and Kisame waited and now it became more apparent of the persons gender, female. It was odd for Ninja to be running around on their own, normally you'd see a team of 3 or 4 depending on what sort of a mission they where on, this was interesting for Itachi in particular, Kisame however was just in the mood for a fight. The large man jumped into the road in front of the unknown girl and the large bundled wrap that was his blade Samehada was pulled from his back, coming down in an all mighty swing towards the female figure. Samehada is thirsty! Kisame roared as his black robes with the noticeably strong red clouds fluttered from his movements. Itachi in the trees on the other side of the road let out a gentle sigh, Kisame would always jump the gun, it would be better if they'd spend a little bit of time looking at the figure now she'd gotten closer to see if she was someone of note or not. Starting a fight with a random shinobi wasn't the best of ideas, attacking some one you didn't even know what they looked like could end you in a fight with a Sannin or an Anbu, and while Anbu wouldn't be much of an issue for these two the Sannin Tsunade the only viable option due to the figures gender would be. The woman would dodge the blow easily, Itachi knew that, but he best make his presence known in case they ended up in a hard fight. Itachi landed behind the woman with a silent step, saying nothing, standing about 30 foot behind her just after Kisame began to swing his terrible attack that would get him no where.
