The sound of laughing children and singing birds filled the afternoon air as Kakashi and Tengoku walked through the school yard and into the school. Tengoku was limping while holding onto Kakashi's arm that was bent for her support. Bandages covered her hands and some were placed around her neck. The entered the empty classroom to find Iruka working at his desk, class had been dismissed early once again. "Good Afternoon Iruka-kun." Tengoku said as she sat down on the desk that the children would sit at during class. Kakashi looked to Iruka and smiled, even though his face was covered as usual. "Tenshi-san." Iruka said as he stood up and gave her a hug. She returned the hug with a smile. "You seem to be doing better. Sorry I didnt come to see you in the hospital but Hokage-sama had be tied up and still has me busy." "Its okay, Iruka-kun. I understand. I came to talk to you about what Hokage-sama's got you working on. I want you to stop it and work on teaching the young ones." Tengoku said, straight and to the point as usual. "But I cant just drop it." "Yes you can, myself and Kakashi will be taking it over with some help from Jiraiya. I've already to talk to Tsunade." "Fine.. But why?" "Its too dangerous. I dont want you sticking your neck into Orochimaru's business and getting killed for it. Leave that work to the ANBU or Jounin." She said, smiling like an older sister after her words. She stood up and hugged him. "I dont want to lose someone who's like a brother to me." She said before releasing him from the hug and leaving the class room, running into Kiba Inuzuka when leaving. "Sorry ma'am." He muttered as his small dog, Akamaru, barked. "Who?" Kiba said, responding to his Akamaru's small bark. "Tenshi-sama? She hasnt be around for years." Kiba said as he walked down the hall, having left the woman he ran into without looking at her face, his mind was set on seeing his sensei. Akamaru barked once again and that convenced Kiba to turn around. He was surprised to see Tengoku walked down the hall with help from Kakashi. Her long ebon hair and unearthly aura couldnt be mistaken and certainly not by someone with Kiba's unique power. "All be damned." He muttered. "So its true, she really did get beat up badly by Orochimaru." he said before turning back around and running down the hallway to meet with his group.
