"We can hear you kid..."
"If you have any interest in entering the village I suggest you get down or I will do it for you."
The masked man emerged from his slumber with aggression it seemed. Looking down, Aiko could tell that the man meant business. Being obedient as usual, Aiko jumped down, landing to the ground with a soft thud."Ah, Im so very sorry. Well, I'm just..." Aiko said with a nervous smile. showing his kind nature as usual, Aiko couldn't help, but to laugh nervously. The last thing him or anyone else would want, was trouble.
"You have your papers and you said something about a sensei. Who would that be?"
Patting himself a bit, Aiko could feel the all too familiar presence approach. It was perfect how things worked out. Raising his eyebrows with his eyes closed, Aiko's grin grew.
"I could sense your chakra a mile a way, Aiko-kun, my boy. You have returned from your journey."
"You still haven't cut your bangs." "There is much for us to discuss but there is a private matter I must attend to. Meet me in my office in an hour."
Aiko's heart overpowered with a warm sensation. In all honesty, the Raikage was the closest thing to a father figure Aiko had ever had. "A pleasure to see you again sensei." Aiko said with a laugh as his hair was ruffled. If he had a tail, it would surely waggle without control. It took everything Aiko had not to tackle shin with a hug, but he had business to attend to. "Can't interrupt business." Aiko thought looking at the man that traveled with shin, then back to the ANBU personnel.
"Yasutake-san. Allow Aiko-san to enter the village. He has had a long journey."
"Yes, raikage-sama."
"Thank you Yasutakr-San. And thank you Raikage-sama, for everything." Aiko said as he made his way into the village. "See you in an hour." Aiko said with a final wave. One hour was all the young spirit needed.
