Kaoru was glad to be home for once in her life. Even though she'd had a bumpy start settling in after meeting her mother and having her disappear all in one day. Now she was feeling a bit better. She stopped in to see if Kinaga was okay every now and then and she was plannig a day that he could meet her adoptive parents. She'd even made up a good explanation as to what Hisoya had done. Walking through the village she was looking for new faces. Since she had been gone for quite some time.

Kenjiro looked around,a soft smile on his face.This village....it feels so much like home,he thought.He was scheduled to be the kage of this village,but for now,he had work to finish in the Stealth.Right now,he was taking a bit of time to look at the newly formed village,enjoying its area and feel.It wasn't the original Moon village that he grew up in,but it felt so close to home,it made he nearly cry.

Kaoru was continuing her walk when she saw someone she didn't. "Hello," she said. She was a bit more care free since she was at home. "Are you new here?" She asked. She'd been gone a hwile, so this guy could have been living here for a while, so who knows. She gave a smile. "I'm Kaoru Sakaiya," she said. "It's a pleasure to meet you mr?"

"Hatario.Kenjiro Hatario,"he said,smiling to her with a nod."No,I'm just here on a visit.....and to remember things.This village is almost and exact type of my original village,the Moon village.It was where I grew up,"he said."I came to look at here,mainly because.....well,in a few months....never mind,"he said,smiling at the sky.He didn't want to tell anyone that he was going to be this village's kage soon.

Kaoru smiled. "It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Hatario," she said. She looked at him as he stopped mid-sentence. Maybe he had his reasons. "It's nice to know the Crested can bring joy to those who've lost something," she said. She'd been taught that the Moon had been destroyed while in the Academy. "Maybe you should take a visit here for a while," she suggested.

He sighed and smiled at the thought."I wish I could,but I've got some pressing matters in my own village to deal with.I came here for at least a day of relaxation and peace,"he told her.He was there in the village when it was destroyed so he remembered it well."I hope I can keep this place as peaceful the Moon was,"he whispered silently to himself,breathing in deeply.He turned to her."Would you mind showing me around some?Unless you have something else to do,"he asked.

Kaoru couldn't help but giggle when he asked for a tour. This place hadn't changed much since she'd left, but if anything knew had come up both him and her would miss it. "Of course I'll give you a tour," she said. Besides Kinaga could wait. The anticipation would make it all the better when she did see him. "Come this way," she said. "I'll take you to the best part of the village first," she said.

Kenjiro nodded,smiling."Thanks,"he told her.He wanted to examine this village and see all over it,to see the similarities it had to the Moon village and the new things it had over it.After all,in a few weeks,he was planning on being kage of it and not many knew about,just him,Bell,Tenkuu and a few others.

Kaoru nodded and started off to the center of the village. It was the livest part of the village. Too bad it wasn't nightfall. That's when it was really live in the Crested. They worshiped the moon. She gave a giggle and walked on until they were at the center of the village. "Welcome to the center of our village," she said. "Feel free to explore for while," she told him and pointed to the stalls that were in a large circle.

Kenjiro looked around,amazed by the sight.He didn't want to seem like a kid but he felt like it right now!He walked throughout the stalls,looking within each one and asking about its wears."The Moon Village had something like this,except we mainly had them out on the Full Moon festivals,"he told her,looking around happily.

Kaoru gave a small purr of laughter. "Why wiat until then to have fun, this compares nothing to the festival's she said as she walked around, seeing what was nice to buy. She was thinking of buying Kinaga something, though he didn't really deserve it. She smile and looked down at the diamond that her mother had given her before she left. Kaoru sighed. "Miss you, mom." She then looked to Kenjiro to make sure he hadn't gotten lost.

Kenjiro had begun wandering around through the area when he realized he'd gotten too far away from their original spot."Oh dear,which direction did I come from,"he asked himself,looking around."Maybe....oh wait,the barbecued meat stand.I passed it,"he said,wandering to where the smell wafted from.

Kaoru gasped in horror when she noticed Kenjiro was gone. "Oh my," she breathe. "Kenjiro," she called softly. "Kenjiro?" Kaoru sighed. "Never again will I be anyone's guide," she mumbled miserably and went in search of the man who'd disappeared. Walking slowly and exaiming the crowd she could see no one. "Where could he have gone, not to far I hope."
