Under Aijou's gaze, Maz calmly told him.
"I am... Mazrakiel..."
He wasn't going to tell him which clan he was a part of, not until his father intervened.
"We are of the Adarakis Clan. I'm his father... pleased to meet you." Kagemaru stuck his hand out to the ANBU, in hopes that he would shake his hand.
"What business have ANBU with the Adarakis Family? I hope my son has not been of too much trouble..."

What? Iro thought to himself as he pulsed out more chakra in an attempt to identify the mysterious voice.
"Who are you?"

Taro kept his expression relaxed, hoping to ease some of the boy's tension. "I think it would be best." He glanced at Nada, then returned his gaze to Yamiko again. "After all, what's most important to the Hokage right now is keeping everyone in the village safe."
Nadameru bobbed her head up and down in agreement with her father's remark.
Taro placed his hand on Yamiko's shoulder casually, beginning to steer him in the direction of their home. He motioned for Nadameru to go on without him. "What's your name, boy?"
Nada watched the two depart curiously, then obliged her father's wishes and took off for her original destination.

Aijou reached out and grabbed the man's hand in a firm handshake. "Pleased to meet you, too!" Aijou said. "Don't worry...He hasn't been any trouble at all...He's the Hokage's new assisstant, so I thought I might as well find out his name, since I'll be seeing him a lot from now on."

If Iro could sense th finer images of chakra, he'd find the wind col oured by his sense, as the chakra from Yasashiku's body latched on to the sand and dust within 20 paces of this man.
"Thats, my question, I'm a Sand Ninja, but I'm taking care of this district. I'll have to escort you home or ask you to move towards the closest designated area of safety."
He suddenly felt surge of Chakra rush from the boy, unaware of his specia cirucmstance, he replied to it, "watch how you use that thing," he said cautioningly, "if the enemy were about, thats as good as a lightbulb in the dark."
Yasashiku felt another story stirring in the dust and ashes, the hospital ruins were close by.... I wonder, he thought, would the remains be able to tell me what happened? Perhaps so.
He lost his interest in Iro. "Go home, we have an emergency situation here. besides, I can' have you contaminate whats left."

Great, thought Maz to himself. He's gonna be keeping an eye on me.
"I hope you don't get on the wrong side of the ANBU, Maz." Kagemaru joked; Maz didn't think it was too funny.
"Don't worry, Father. I won't."

"Thats, my question, I'm a Sand Ninja, but I'm taking care of this district. I'll have to escort you home or ask you to move towards the closest designated area of safety." replied the person behind him.
Where did he come from? And how could he sense my chakra output? I barely even know I'm releasing any...
"Gomen!" Iro said with a slight bow. "I'll get home right away..."

It was perhaps this Sand nin's greatest skill, being able to read chakra residues from even the finest grains of sand. His chakra made wind caught hold of the enemies chakra and made for the perfect close combat spies. But even after the battle is over the chakra remains, as a scar would after a wound, and the strange leftovers from the direction of the hospital intrigued his mind.
"See that you do", he mumbled, barely audiuably, and only half listening; his mind was preoccupied with his new puzzle. He lept over the young boy and the chakra-wind followed him. Then, he slowly made his way towards the site of the explosion, collecting all the data he could as he moved.

The day passed slowly. The evening was upon them, the sky growing slightly dim, the air becoming cooler. It was now time to escort Mazrakiel and his father home. Aijou walked back into the office from the balcony.
"Well, I think it's time I escort you both home." He said, turning half way around, motioning them towards the door. "Let's go..."

"What was that all about?" Iro mumbled to himself. "Perhaps I should head home... maybe I'll learn something on the way back."
Iro turned around and started on his way home, still confused about who that shinobi was that had spotted him, and how he had been able to see the chakra Iro was emmitting.

"Yes, as you wish." The two Adarakis made their way through the door, and down the stairs to the base of the building.
Maz looked outside. Life on the streets seemed to run like a military prison. Soldiers running around, swords unsheathed. There were almost no civilians... in fact, there were almost no people running around, and those that were were being closely guarded by Jounin. He noticed a couple of ANBU on the rooftops, who seemed to be looking out for anything out of the ordinary.
The threat of attack still lingered, it seemed.
It was then that he noticed from afar a crew of people, lingering around a large building, which looked like it had been shattered by an explosion earlier in the day: the hospital. They were cleaning up. It was devastating.
So that was the source of the other explosion... I'd heard it was the hospital... but... couldn't imagine it until now...
"Well, let's go," said Kagemaru. And they set off for home... with the ANBU behind them.

Aijou followed the two as they made their way towards their home. As they approached the Yanagawa house, Aijou caught a glimpse of someone creeping around outside. He quickly halted Kagemaru and Mazrakiel.
"You two... Stay right here... " he said in a low whisper as he drew his katana and disappeared.

The two Adarakis had conversed for much of the journey home, with their ANBU escort following closely behind. They were passing by several houses when the ANBU halted them.
"You two, stay right here."
He drew his katana and made his way off, much to the confusion of Mazrakiel and Kagemaru. Mazrakiel shrugged - not one to break orders, he and his father would stay in place, wondering where he'd gone off to...

Aijou suddenly appeared behind his target, and was about to strike, but stopped short when he realized that it was Kohana, his silly younger sister. He stood there for a moment, smiling mischeviously, trying not to laugh... She'd turn around in a second.
"AAAAAHH!" she yelped when she turned around to see an ANBU staring down at her. She fell backward, landing hard on her rear end.
"Kohana! What are you doing out here? You are supposed to be inside!" he demanded as he grabbed her by the arm and helped hoist her back onto her feet. He then turned to the two Adarakis that were still waiting near the end of the street and motioned them over. He couldn't just leave them standing there under the circumstances.
He turned back to his sister, awaiting an answer. "Well?"
Kohana smiled nervously, searching frantically for an excuse. "I, uh... I was, uh... Looking for my cat! Yeah! I was looking for my cat!"
Aijou sighed. "Kohana... You don't have a cat..."
"Well," she began. "how do you know?" She stuck her tongue out at him.
"Get back inside!" he said, twirling her around, giving her a quick kick in the butt to move her along.
"I'm going, I'm going!" she said as she opened the door and entered into the house, sticking her tongue out at him as she went. She was greeted by her angry parents just as she closed the door.
Aijou turned to face Kagemaru and Mazrakiel again. "Sorry about that!" he said with a chuckle. "Let's go..."

The ANBU motioned the Adarakis over, where he was busy talking to a young girl - who seemed to be not much younger than Maz. The two argued lightly for a bit, before the ANBU ordered her - her name was Kohana - back inside. Kohana turned around, poked her tongue out at him, and made her way back inside. Charming.
"Sorry about that... Let's go." the ANBU said.
As they began to walk - they weren't too far from the Adarakis house now, still a few minutes' walk - Maz asked, out of curiosity, what that was all about.
