Ginger walked through the open in her usual attire. Her sword was on her back and she was prepared to strike down anyone who opposed her. She felt like taking a jog or maybe playing a game of chess but decided against it. A stroll was more lady like, though cutting up ninja wasn't. She smiled. She missed her old life, but those days were over. She could watch that life from a distance. Even know she could see it but ignored it with great confidence. As hse walked through the wide valley she heard a twig snap. She pulled her blade without hesitation. "Show yourself."

Kazuya smiled. He'd been discovered. Not like he was trying to stalk her or anything. He just liked to mess with people's paranoia. He walked up to her without hesitation, despite the fact that her blade was drawn. He looked straight at her. She looked much older than him and probably alot more experienced too. "Are you going to attack me now?" he asked, a little amusement in his voice.

Ginger didn't like this kid at all. She hated people who bothered others for the joy of it. She put her blade back in it's case. "No" she simply said with a shrug. She examined him carefully. "Why would I attack someone of your status."

(Nothing like the original JM is she.)

(so cruel...your status? really?)

Kazuya frowned. This was becoming no fun very fast. "Of my status, huh?" He gave a small laugh. "I suppose you think I'm just some ordinary Jonin, yeah?" (he still doesn't know he's a vampire at this point) I can tell you don't like me already, isn't that right? he thought, wanting to say it outloud.

(Lmao, this was becoming no fun very fast. That's too funny. Kaz is so stupid.)

Ginger blinked. "You know what, I could care less. Jonin or not I'd drag you across this valley and back before you ever knew what was going on," she snapped. She narrowed her eyes at him. You don't know who I am. You must think I'm some ordinary traveler. If you only knew.

Kazuya gave a small smirk. "You're very confident, I'll give you that, lady. And for all I know, you may have a reason to be. You could be some long lost Kage or something for all I know." (lmao, irony!) "But, I don't know, so therefore, I don't really care." Kazuya gave a small laugh through his teeth and playfully tapped his head. "How rude of me, I haven't even introduced myself. I am Kazuya Auren. I'm a jonin from the Death."

(T-T)

Ginger kept her cool. "Seriously. You're as stupid as I thought." She said giving a small laugh. "But it was nice meeting you," she said. "I'm Ginger Stormwatcher(aka Jutsumaster, that long lost Kage you were talking about.) I'm of no village. Just a traveler passing through," she said.

(lmao, he doesn't know, it was just a really wild [and apparently accurate] guess)

Kazuya frowned. If there was one thing he hated more than anything, it was being called stupid, or anything that goes along the lines of stupid. "Now then, why exactly am I stupid?" he said casually.

"Who the hell says that someone has a reason to be confident," she snapped. "Everyone should be confident and anyone who isn't is just a coward that has no purpose to exist."

(JM is getting way into character here.)

(lol)

Kazuya laughed (it sounds like a really dark laugh too. 0.o). "People who don't have a reason to be confident are those who're just downright weak. It doesn't make them cowardous. It just makes them smart." He tilted his head at her. ".....but me being confident is the reason you already despise me, isn't it? It because I'm so confident in my abilities that I would just walk up to you? Right?" he said with that same dark laugh. (doesn't he sound evil? lol)

(yeah, creepy.)

Ginger shrugged. "What ever you say kid," she said sheepishly. She looked at him. "I don't despise you for your confidence, I depsieyou because you bother people for the joy of it. If I wasn't so nice I would have killed you the moment I noticed you following me." She said.

Kazuya laughed (it's not as dark this time). "Nice? Nice? Ha, you crack me up, lady. I'm sorry, Ginger." He said, this time using her name. He wondered if she considered this disrespectful, but he couldn't help himself. He was bored. He shrugged. "I get bored. And recently I've been out of things to do. So I mess with peoples' paranoia. It's the only thing I can do lately," he said with a small smirk.

Ginger rolled her eyes. "Immature child," she said. She shrugged. "I have no paronia, it's just a one way streak to making a mistake that could end my life," she said. "Maybe you should ask you Kage for a mission, I think he'll be glad to have you off his hands."

Kazuya's smile faded. "I'm sure everyone in my valley would be glad to be rid of me," he said with a dark laugh. "It wouldn't surprise me in the least. You're right though. Nowadays, one mistake is all it takes. I suppose I judged you too harshly? I apologize for messing with you," he said, looking off to the side. He didn't like that he had to change this into such a serious situation, but what she said had made him think of something.

Ginger sighed. "Listen kid, it's none of my buisness or anything, but if your village wants to rid of you then somethings either wrong with them or you. Personally I don't care, but you might need to have a heart to heart conversation with your Kage. When people get scared they tend to do stupid stuff like kill. Even if that person who'd their victim is a loved one or a friend."

Kazuya gave a small grin and looked at her. "Oh, there's nothing wrong with my village." He had no problems admitting there was something off about him. But for now, he just couldn't tell what it was yet. He laughed. "A heart-to-heart with my Kage? You're daft, that's an insane idea." Stupid stuff like kill? Who is this lady really? He ran his tongue over his teeth, a habit he had recently developed and found that they were sharp again. This time he knew it couldn't be his imagination.

Ginger smiled. "I was being sarcastic kid," she said. She then narrowed her eyes. "You're a..." She stopped. "Well atleast you admit it's you." She said sheepishly.

Kazuya frowned. Had she seen it? "I'm a what?" he asked, his eyes a little narrow. He had no idea what she was talking about, or what was even going on with him. He put one of his hands in his pocket. He frowned and sniffed the air once. It was odd...something about the air smelled familiar....he just couldn't put his finger on it.. "Do...do you smell that?" It was faint, but he was sure he smelled it.

Ginger swallowed. I was right, he's a vampire. I wonder if he's one of Kraven's vampires. He doesn't seem to know. It could go both ways if I tell him. She slowly blinked. "One strange kid." She didn't expect him to by it so she'd already planned three steps ahead. She frowned. "Smell what?" She asked.

He looked at her, his eyes a little narrow. "Don't play me for dumb. What were you going to say?" he asked. He tried to ignore what he kept smelling. How could she not smell it now? (it would smell faint to her, but a really strong to him) It was unmistakable now...he smelled blood somewhere off in the distance. His pupils almost immediately dilated, his teeth now unmistakably that of a vampires (although he still doesn't seem to notice). He looked around to try to figure out where it was coming from. Where...where is it coming from?

Ginger looked at him. "Listen kid, you must really be dumb if you haven't noticed by now why your village doesn't like you." She said shrugging. "Haven't you oticed anything diffrent about yourself." She asked.

He glared at her. "Don't call me dumb." He may have seemed nineteen but for all he could remember, he was a ten year old, though a bit more mature. His eyes narrowed. "I may have noticed something...why?"

Ginger shrugged. "You know what, never mind," she snapped at him. "If you haven't figured out what you are then you're pointless," she said turning around and strting down the hill. She wasn't about to put up with this little brat anymore.

Kazuya looked at her, ignoring the smell for now. "Uh, hey, wait a minute!" he said. He wanted to know what she was talking about. He started to run down the hill after her, but suddenly tripped and fell down the hill. He landed at the bottom and sat there a moment, a little dizzy. He blinked a couple times and looked up the hill at Ginger. "What do you know about me?" he asked, any prior darkness or irritation gone from his voice. All that was left was just curiosity and eagerness.

Ginger gave a small giggle as he rolled down the hill past her. She slowly walked down the hill towards him and stopped. "Have you noticed that your senses are stronger. Such as your smell. Have you've noticed that your teeth are sharper than normal." She asked.
