Kita lay wide awake, staring at the stars. It had been 4 hours since they set up camp and he still couldnt sleep. He was confused. He had actually found himself worrying about his sister.
Her mental state seemed to be worse than his mothers, or at least what he could remember of her.
He wondered whether she would be ok; she was still just a kid and the fact she suffered this condition made her much more vulnerable than the others.
"Gaara-sama....please take care of her...." He whispered. He had known all along the kazekage was the reason Ikara was returning to the village, hell, it was his reason too. He had a few words of wisdom for his leader regarding his sister who had been his eyes and ears for many a year now. Sure she never took part in any official missions but she was his connection to the other villages and she always sent him back any useful information she had stumbled across.
Kita looked down at Haruka; she seemed to be sleeping soundly.
"Alright for some...." Kita sighed, closing his eyes and attempting to get back to sleep.

Haruka wasn't having the best night. It was filled with memories, of her old home, her family, her sister; things that she really didn't enjoy revisiting. She was woken by the glare of the sunlight through the trees.
She shot up, nearly falling off of her perch on the branch, latching her legs around it and hanging upside down like a monkey. "Whoa..." she mumbled, swinging her self bake up onto the tree branch. "That was too close..." She looked down at the forest floor. She was up so high. She looked back up at the branch above her which held Kita. "Hey, sleeping beauty. YOu up?"

Kita opened one eye; he felt like he'd just gotten to sleep and already he was receiving a rude awakening. He pulled a kunai from under his pillow and through it downwards randomly
"Stupid alarm clock....." he muttered, "trying to wake me up......" He rolled onto his side and buried his head under the hoodie he was using as a pillow.
The bark of the branch was beginning to scratch his face, making him aware of his surroundings.
"Meh...." he shrugged and closed his eyes again

She flinched, the knife macking a distinct 'plunk' sound as it hit the tree trunk next to her. Haruka sighed, and decided to let him sleep in a bit. She hopped down out of the tree and began making the morning breakfast. She scavenged together some bird eggs and some eatable plants and began cooking them over a flint-produced fire. She scent filled the air.

Kita sniffed. Food was nearby. He sniffed some more. Nice food.
"But i really dont wanna get up...." he whined to himself; his stomach however, told him otherwise as it rumbled loudly sounding like a small earthquake...well....a small earthquake in his stomach.
He sat up and ruffled his hand through his hair, yawning; as he did so, his top wrinkled up slightly revealing part of the tattoo on his lower back which he quickly covered back up.
He hopped down from the tree and landed catlike on his feet, sniffing out the source of the smell.

Haruka looked up and saw that her traveling partner was taking her bait. She continued cooking, making sure that the eyes didn't burn. Slowly, she mixed in the bit of dried beef that she had brought along. It was really starting to smell good. She dished it out onto two different plate and set one down for Kita.

"FOOD!" Kita pounced at the food, stuffing it in his mouth; he had no idea where he put all this food but he had the feeling that it would catch up with him in a few years. As images of him being old and fat entered his head, Kita sweatdropped before crying
"I DONT WANNA BE OLD!!!!"
As his moment of madness subsided he looked at Haruka
"Can i ask you something? Why did you agree to come? I mean, my sister tried to kill you, i tried to kill you....." he asked through a mouthful of food

Haruka jumped back a bit at his 'I don't want to be old' rant and cut into her own scrabled egg and flung it in here mouth. "I don't know..." she said with her mouth full. "I just needed to get away from the village for a bit, clear my head of a few things..." She swallowed.
"And i don't think you you have any intentions of killing me again." she said with a smile, "NOt for a while that is." she added in a tease.

"Nah you're cool kid...." He stuffed more food into his mouth, "I like you!" He gulped, "And it's not often i say that!"
He looked up at the sky; it had cleared up a lot, there wasn't a cloud in sight. Suddenly, the forest didn't seem so scary anymore.
Standing up and stretching, Kita reached into his bag and grabbed his gel, proceeding to spike his hair.
"So we right?" he asked Haruka

Haruka smiled, "Of course." she said, looking up into the treetops as well. It was going to be a beautiful day. She stood up and began cleaning the cooking area she had used. "Well, we best be on our way." she said looking back down at him. She went back up into the tree and grabbed her bag. "YOu ready yet?"

[hope ya dont mind but im gonna skip forward a few hours. If you got a prob i'll edit it  ] Kita sighed, the sun burning the back of his neck. He picked up a few strands of his silver fringed and focused on it; almost going cockeyed in the process. "What colour should i go next?" He asked Haruka, "It's been a fortnight since i last dyed it and im getting bored with it" He had to say something to keep his mind off the agony his legs were in. 6 hours he'd been walking and not so much as a break. He took the bottle of water from his bag and downed it. Luckily, he'd brought spares but how long they'd last he couldnt say |

[No that's fine. I suppose we're gonna have to move this to Suna soon. So are we just gonna start a new forum or do you want to move it?]
"Hair color.... geez i don't know... i guess it depends on selection." she said, tryingto give an honest answer. She took a deep long sigh, looking at her feet. They were sore and she had been walking with a sticker in her sandle for the past hour and a half. But she was trying her best to ignore it. She took out her water pouch and splashed some on her face.
