Roxl walked around his new village. It was so much different that his previous ones. It was lighter than the Ghost, Colder than the Magma, dryer that the Mist and waterfall, hotter than the snow, cleaner than the Leaf, and MUCH different that the rouge life. He was walking towards the park when his name was called.

"Hey Roxl," said Rumiko. "I see you're new too. That makes two of us."

Oh, hi. How are you?

"Fine, I guess considering Jutsu has put me to work like I'm sme kind of cattle."

Doing what?

"Everything. She's put me on twelve A-ranked mission, 4 b-ranked, 7 C-ranked and 9 D-ranked." Rumiko sighs. "I think she's still mad at me form the time I called her a weak kunochi in the Mist."

No, really? Its not like Jm to hold a grudge...

"Plus I attacked her and called her by her acual name when we met in the Time. Not only that she put me on babysitting duty yesterday with one year olds."

Hehe...well, she still wouldnt hold a grudge...

"Fine, ask her why she's making we work my ass off then." Rumiko looks around. "Anyway, what are you doing."

Walking. And if ya want, ill take your place. Im good at working like that.

"Ask Mrs.Grudge in there first." Rumiko walks to a seat and sits. "I'm tired."

Im not going to help if you dont at least TRY to act nicce.

"She started it. I just came to the village and I'm already working as if I've been her for years."

Then move, or be nice. If you ARE nice, ill convince her to stop working you so hard.

"I am nice, she's..." Rumiko shuts up. "Whatever."

Weeeeeeeeeeelllll...i guess ill see what i can do. No guarentees i can convince her though.

"No garuntee at all."

Hey...you have a......32 and a half chance.

"More like 1 percent."

Well whatever. Im gonna go talk to JM.


Roxl looks for Jm, and eventually finds her. "I need to ask you something."

"Yes, what is it?"

Its about Ru. Why are you working him so hard?

"Well let's see he called me a weak kunochi in the Mist. He called me by my real name and no one does that unless they are really serious. Oh and he attacked me."

But its not like you to hold grudges.
