Rini jolted awake from her -- thankfully -- dreamless sleep. She blinked owlishly at Yun for a moment before flushing darkly and pushing herself upright. "S-sorry, Mizukage-sama," she hurriedly explained, wringing her hands nervously and bowing her head. "A-after everything that's happened today a-and the healing on top of that, I was really tired a-and I didn't think it could hurt . . ." Her eyes flicked momentarily to Katsuro and then back to her hands, voice dropping slightly. "A-and with what we're going to be doing later, I thought I'd do well to get some rest and regain some energy."

She ducked her head and shoulders further, murmuring, "I'm sorry, Mizukage-sama. I won't do it again."

Saotome arrived back at his house, and went straight to his room. He took out the ANBU under shirt and pants, got the grey vest and put them on. he then put his mask on a string and was on his right hip. He took out a long coat and put it on as well, having blue clouds outlined in sliver. He then cut his hair short and dyed it black. He put his head band on. the new look would show that he is done with life. He needed to be someone new.

"Rini..."he walked up to the girl in Neo's room."Please take care of Neo some more."He wrote a letter. It basiclly stated that he moved on, and Neo was free to do as he please, if it ment going around and acting like a savage beast."give this letter to Neo. tell him whats on it as he ia reading it. He left for the Palace.

Neo,
I know things are complicated, but i am devoting all of my time to the village, run away, go kill something, i don't care, do as you please. My life is in the hands of the Mizukage now. But know this........this home of my, will awlways be a home for you.

Saotome.

At first, Rini did not recognize Saotome -- so drastic was the change -- but his chakra was still familiar and when he spoke, there was no doubt as to his identity. She took the letter, eyes scanning the contents quickly before widening. What . . . ? Giving a small gasp, she jumped down of the bed and hurried after him, catching his sleeve just as he was leaving the house. "Sensei, wait!" The genin looked up at him, confusion, hurt, and a little bit of fear running circles in her eyes among other less distinguishable emotions. "Does this mean . . . you're leaving us? You're not going to be our sensei anymore?"

"I will still be your sensei, but you have your great mother and father now to train you. Its not my responsibility anymore. But if you feel that you need more training, i will train you. Now is not the time. Yun has requested me to meet him at the Palace. I think you will be a good teacher for now, for my cousin from the other side of the Water country is coming to mist. Maybe you can teach her some of your Medical jutsu, since that is what she wants to learn." He looked at her, he seemed as he had no emotions.

Himi arrived at the house that the paper told her to go to. she was not familiar with the village, since she would only go here as a little girl with her mother."Saotome? Are you home?" she went into the house. She had not seen him in years.

Katsuro walked over to the two, but stood about 5 feet behind them. His hand on his forehead ad his other hand was on his right side of his waist. "Going to run again, huh?" He asked as he wanted to see what he could really do. He just stood there as he watched the two talked.

She heard voices and didn't know what do to. So she began to walk to were she heard all the voices. As she made her way to the room were everyone was at, she then seen three ppl."Ummm is Saotome home?"

Rini gave a sharp, somewhat frustrated sight. "I know that, but . . . well . . . Luna seems to think that I'm not her student anymore, but yours, and even if I am still her student, there are other people who need you. You're really just going to run away from Neo? Now, when he really needs you?" She searched his face, eyebrows drawn together. "Everyone in his life has either treated him like trash, died, or abandoned him for some selfish reason. He needs someone to prove that not everyone is like that, and I can't do that alone. He needs to learn that people can forgive and ask forgiveness -- accept responsibility for their actions. He needs a father, Hya-sensei."

The genin tugged sharply on his sleeve, jaw tight. "You taught me to be strong -- to lift my head and move forward, no matter what happens -- to fight to overcome obstacles. I might not have gotten a total grasp on that . . . at all . . . but you can't tell someone to do something and then not do it yourself, sensei." Her eyes turned pleading, grip on his sleeve tightening. "He needs you, sensei. He might not act like it, but he does. Please don't just abandon him like this. He'll never heal, and that thing will just get stronger. I would know . . ." Rini dropped her gaze, but her grip did not slacken.

He turned around to see it was only Katsuro."Yes after i am done talking to Rini, she really needs some feedback from me. And i am going to run away to the Palace of the Mizukage. He summoned me after our "talk". Why dont you go back to your own village Tsuchikage, and stop bothering me. As of right now, you mean nothing to me." He didn't like the Tsuchikage, for he tried to look like he awas all that."Oh! Himiu! Im here." He looked at the girl, she had changed alot.

"Rini, your right, my duties may keep me busy, as i still accept you and Neo as my students. There will be times when i am summond, and there is nothing i can do. Im sorry if i am the only Jonin in this village who i willing to train you younger shinobi. The only thing who trust..."He noticed her grip on his sleeve"Is that he may never forgive me. I know the trust process may take longer than it did before, but i guess i will deal with treating you both with respect, and making sure you are not harmed. As for his pet, Sammy, he may not let me get near Neo. I am sure you can understand that life is full of Sacrifices."

Rini's grip slackened. "I understand so long as you don't totally give up on him. I'll talk to him about it, okay? And I'll do what I can to help your cousin . . . though I'm not sure how good of a teacher I'll be. I'm still learning myself." She gave him a faint but reassuring smile and then glanced from him to Katsuro and back. "Tsuchikage-sama is here as a -- favor, sensei. He's going to be helping with a . . . possible threat to the village. He might even be able to help with Neo as well . . ."

"Rini, i already see you as a future Kunoichi, and your going to be a good one. I have alot of faith in you, and as for the Tsuchikage, well i hope he does not pester me or anyone in this house. I just have high hopes for everyone. I am now on the line of Duty, and i have to serve my village. Im just glad that i have good friends, who will help me." He looked at Rini. He knew that Himiu was waiting in thi living room."HIMIU! Come and meet one of my students."

he sent a clone to the Mizukage.

"Mizukage sir." Saotome realized that he was in the room.

Rini smiled faintly, grateful for Saotome's confidence in her. She folded her hands behind her back and glanced at the young woman -- Himiu -- that entered from the living room. Dipping in a shallow bow, she greeted, "Hello. I am Rini Chikongou. Welcome to Kirigakure no Sato, Himiu-san."
