It has been a while since Ziren has had a good bowl of Ichiraku Ramen. Lately, he's been just having his own kind of ramen soup at his home. But it isn't the same. His family isn't there with him, as they have spent some days in the bunkers, as with some other villagers who have prepared ahead of time. The only other kind of ramen he likes, other than the food he has with his wife and children, is Ichiraku. So this is why he is here now.
Ziren closed his eyes and took a deep breath. So much has happened these past few months. These past few months alone has changed Ziren so much from the person he once was. Huh, it feels like a lifetime ago. He has grown from experience. Maybe more than what others of his age would be. Twenty-one, and has seen much more than a lot of others of his age.
As the ramen arrived, Ziren found that he really didn't have the appetite, despite how good it looks to eat. He wonders what his life would have been if his brother hasn't ordered a mercenary to kill his parents. Would he be in Cloud? Living a normal shinobi life? He wouldn't know, that life was taken away from him. But maybe... Maybe Ziren was destined to be here in Leaf. A man, whose clan is foreign to this country. The clan, in question, was known for their sinister ways of using blood. And yet, here he is, Chigokai Ziren. Having a family here. Friends here. People, who he thinks of as family.
And Frost is threatening to take it all away. Ziren stirred around his ramen, occasionally eating a bit, but not really interested in the food.
