Late Night Insight- Open-

[Uchiha Takezo]

The moon hung low in the warm night sky, lighting the docks that Takezo was temporarily calling home. The young boy was sitting with his feet hanging a few feet above the water line. HE absently mindedly kicked his feet back and forth, his Chakram jingling slightly. For the moment he was just looking up at the stars, breathing heavily. It had been a long day of training and he was tired but couldn't sleep. A cool breeze came creeping up from the water as he sat, resting his young body.


Takezo looked up at the reflection of the moon in the water, enjoying the serenity of the moment. The absolute beauty that the Uchiha compound held was breath taking. The way the reeds danced in the breeze and the ripples they sent across the moons reflection. Softly making the image pulse with life then calming once more. Even though he was on the farthest reaches of the compound he was still home and happy. HE may not have had a roof like some people but he had a home bigger than anyone else. He lives in the trees of the Uchiha compound and on some occasions the dock he was on now.


All in all it was a lonely life for Takezo, his lifestyle caused most people to either dismiss him or downright dislike him. He was a friendly enough fellow, if a little over zealous at times. He just wanted friends so badly, someone to share nights like this with. He didn't care who, he just didn't want to be lonely anymore. Even the moon had the sun to chase through the sky, yet he has no one. With the recent death of his grandfather Takezo was left to his own devices, In war time no less.

[Nara Shikaya]

Aya was a bit of a night owl she liked being alone and even though it was dark she could just relax and be herself. She had heard rumors that there was a male that would spend some time near the docks, of course she wasn`t one for men but something was seriously bugging her. The way the moon reflected from her black hair seemed to give her more life, and her charcoal eyes looked around the doc carefully until she saw the young boy, she`d seen him around before and from what her parents explained he was an orphan. She grabbed her hood and flipped it up and over her head sticking her hands into her pockets.

The air was a little chilled, and well she didn`t know if she could stay out all night long. Her parents wouldn`t honestly come and look for her, they knew that their child liked to run off and stay out and in their eyes she was suppose to be able to take care of herself. That didn`t mean she should get in trouble she just wouldn`t go home anytime soon other than to let them know she was fine. All in all she was a thirteen year old girl and she needed a way to express herself more so than she could have with her own team. They where all friends but Aya wanted someone she could trust with her secrets someone who no one would expect and this kid seemed to be the right person for the job.

Her footsteps where soft almost silent as she made her way down the dock to the male, charcoal eyes locked onto the water to avoid any unneeded eye contact. Her voice was soft and held a hint of intelligence behind it, "Do you mind if I join you?" She would introduce herself right away and she honestly felt the need to want to sit and talk to someone else who wasn`t "Normal". "I`m Aya. " she looked over towards the reeds swaying in the wind and closed her eyes relaxing.

[Uchiha Takezo]

Takezo was in his own little world, focusing in on the water. He was thinking deep thoughts, about his life and clan and his role in both things. HE wanted to show the Clan that he was worth something That they were wrong to ignore and shun him. HE would show them all, One day he would stand atop the Shinobi world, but for now he just wanted to activate his eyes. So he could see a different world than this one, one where everyone was equally below him.

The raven haired boy was lost in his own little world, or he would have heard the foot steps. He would have noticed the aroma of someone who bathed regularly heck he might have even heard the sound of her cloths, who knows but the fact was he was completely absorbed in his "day dream" and was taken by surprise and only slightly overreacted.

As soon as she spoke Takezo flailed his body like a maniac and incidentally flung himself into the water creating a much larger splash than one would think physically possible for a child his size. The water churned with Takezo's frantic reaching. Eventually he grabbed hold of the dock and pulled himself up until just his head and knuckles above, Just in time for him to hear her name.

Blinking some water out of his eyes as he spoke, I'm Takezo...And sure take a seat. His voice was ,despite everything, cheerful and almost excited despite its soft tone. What brings you out here this late?

[Nara Shikaya]

The female was taken back a bit as the male basically threw himself in the lake. During some of the splash some of the water had managed to backlash onto her and her clothing. She gave a soft smile at the male realizing that it wasn`t an issue he`d freaked out just a bit of excitement. She examined the dark hair boy who seemed to have in a term been an outcast, that was the only reason she knew him from the rest of the kids. She smiled down at him with a gentle look, "Pleasure to meet you. " She didn`t risk grabbing his hand to help him up out of the pure fact that he could have pulled her in that way and she liked not being wet from head to toe.

When his voice rang out and asked her what she was doing out this late she gave him a non nonchalant shrug and looked back towards the reeds in the water, " Hmm, well I needed some air. That and among other things I suppose. " She didn`t want to go into details about her personal life it was never simple to be the outcast and she knew he might understand but to each their own. Aya was a girl of few words but when she opened up she opened like a book, until then she just wanted to take some time to just relax and enjoy the scenery. Maybe it was because she had such a hard time fitting in but she was a little distracted by the current man watching her.

Aya didn`t dare dip her feet in the water, her legs where crossed lady like so that the Uchiha boy wouldn`t get a show. She had more manners than people thought and with her black knee high stockings she simple looked like a young girl, it was her typical appearance but she had little to worry about when it came time to deal with the whole stop showing off your body. Her left hand moved gently over the wooden surface of the dock tracing a design in the wood, she wasn`t sure what else to say, "What about you? Got any ideas on what you are doing out here?" She looked over to the boy with a black eye brow raised.

[Uchiha Takezo]

Takezo smiled wide as she spoke back to him, despite him getting her wet. This was normally the part where people would yell at him and leave but this girl stayed. she didn't seem to too pleased to be wet but she shrugged it off easily enough. Takezo could feel his heart beat through his chest. HE hasn't has the chance to make a friend in some time and he didn't want to ruin it. He moved his hands and body along the dock ,shimmying away from her to pull himself out of the water. "Well it's a great night for it, Sorry fer getting you wet" He chimed in as he pulled himself up from water.

As he pulled himself up and stood on the dock, letting the water cascade down his body . He pulled off the top of his kimono, tightening his belt to secure it. He let the top hang back and hang down behind him, dripping through the planks of the dock. Vallen ran his hands through his hand, drawing it all backwards to drain the water down his back. Takezo's body was scattered with old scars and new bruises and cuts.

" What am I doing here? He repeated with a small laugh. " Well I Live here, or was going to 'till I got it all wet. Now.." His voice trailed off as he started to look around. Ah He said after a second and pointed to a tall tree a few dozen yards away. There, That tree is my home for the night. He said with a wry grin. Looks like a nice sleeping tree

[Nara Shikaya]

The male interest Aya, he wasn`t like the other boy`s she`d become use to and her mind wasn`t confused by the boy, it was more of a interested thought that kept her mind where it was. How could someone like him live alone, be alone and not have parents to train him? Without her father Aya felt that she could have never been the Nara she was now. She knew this male had no home, no place to go except back to the Uchiha compound where he would most likely be ignored and treated like crap. It wasn`t like the Nara`s to open up their housing but Aya would make an acceptation for the male.

She looked over at the dripping boy and kept a straight face, not smiling or giving him any sign of happiness just a face that not a lot of people would be able to hold during something as funny as this, "How would you like to come to my house for some dinner, I know its not much but you could stay for a while. Get some sleep and relax." There was something that made her want to invite him and another part that made her want to push the male away. She looked around curiously making sure that no one else could watch her being nice. Something Aya prided herself on was being reserved yet she had time to be open and honest with this male over the others.

She moved a strand of her black hair back tucking it behind her hears through the hoodie. Something about the way this male held himself gave her comfort in the offer. She looked over the water once more before up at the moon, it was a pretty night and she was enjoying the peace of it all and with this male here it seemed more....do able.

Takezo's eyes widened when she offered diner. Even as he wrung out his sleeves you could see the excitement in his eyes. Food? Hell yeah!! Takezo's whole body livened up as if the prospect of real food made him forget that he was still dripping wet. Grabbing his other sleeve Takezo stopped and his happy aura shut down a bit. If I eat the food do I have to stay the night?

His voice was cautious 'Cuz if i'm not here the whole clan might come looking for me and that might looks bad.
He boy said lying through his teeth. See, I'm kind of a important person in the village, everyone knows me ya know. He said, twisting a truth to his benefit. The truth was he just didn't like sleeping indoors, he roves blocked the stars and the smells the breeze carried.

But if that's part of the deal.... His voice trailed off again. His left hand raised up to scratch his wet head a bit before he turned to her with a Cheshire grin, Well it would be rude to turn down such a polite and heart felt offer. HE winked at her and he tied the sleeves around his waist, leaving his essentially topless for the time being. But what are you Parents gonna say?

[/center]

[Nara Shikaya]

Aya watched and listened to the way he spoke, there was a lot that seemed to make him uneasy she laughed softly when he spoke about staying the night, "Huh, no. You are not going to be forced to stay the night. That`s a weird question." she raised a black brow looking at him, she wondered why he thought that, it was obvious from the smell that he wasn`t a regular in the house but then again no boys seemed to smell so lovely lately. She hadn`t bothered to ask her parents in fact it didnt matter what they said she had people over all the time. She wasn`t to pushy with friends but she figured if she could bring her teammates over what was the difference?

She shrugged softly at the male and stood up carefully making sure she would fall into the water. She unlike him wanted to stay dry till they got to her house and even then there where extra clothing no doubt. She took a deep breath and moved from the edge of the dock not waiting to see if the boy would fallow or not, her charcoal eyes turning to look at him, " Hope you don`t mind Nara`s. We wont hurt you or anything just a fair warning my dads a bit of a stiff. " She gave her award winning smirk and turned her face back to the road walking slowly not caring if she slacked behind or caught up, hell she`d go home even if he didn`t fallow her.

It was hard for Aya to be so social and even the amount of words she`d spoken to him where pushing her limits she wasn`t sure what was going on in her head. What was it about males that seemed more soothing when they of course where not Nara`s. Those pricks always seemed to try to one up her, at least with the none nara clan she could maintain her superior brain and words over them.

[Uchiha Takezo]

Takezo's smirk turned into a wild smile as the girl walked past him. She was going to feed him for free and all because he just happened to be on the docks, today was his lucky day. A good hard day of training and Takezo WAS going to go to bed on an empty stomach. Now he was on the way to a girls house to eat. He hoped happily along side her, leaving a trail of wetness behind him.

Why would I care if your a Nara? Uchiha are WAY more uptight and elitist than the Nara, I should be fine. Despite the insult to his clan Takezo sounded like he was bragging. His jovial tone and cheerful energy made it hard to tell. Right now he was just so over joyed at the idea of a home cooked meal.

So what do you think there will be to eat? He wanted to fill the time that they walked with talk of what could be eaten. This was game he often played by himself and it rarely ever came true. Now would be THE greatest game of "what would you eat" He'll ever play, since he'll actually be able to eat some of the things she says, that's the idea at least.

[Nara Shikaya]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] it's the purest element and it's so volatile She dismissed the fact the fact that the male had one upped her with his clan, although it was highly irritating she refused to allow the boy any emotional response that could hurt her case later. She allowed his next question to take over her thoughts, was this suppose to be a game about what they where eating? Interesting game she supposed but she never knew what her mother would make she supposed something with fish they where oddly fond of it most likely because it was mind food. Something the clan prided themselves on, she smiled slightly and looked over to the male her eyes looking him over for a second before turning back to the road. "Well mother is fond of fish so most likely that, some form of soup, and she does love vegtables as well. Heathly eaters and all we try to stay away from sweets but that doesn`t mean we dont have some chocolate in the house somewhere. You`ll like it I promise, she spent her life learning to cook." Everyone thought that Aya`s mother had more potential than to stand in a kitchen today and dispite the argument her mother gave even Aya had to agree with the people. She had more love and trust in her mother than the rest of the Nara clan but she had no way to show her that one day Aya would become the strongest female Nara clan member she would never fall into the routine her mother had created. Shikaya gave a soft shrug of her shoulder, she didn`t want to be that kid, well that girl. She wanted to make him feel welcomed in her home but at the same time she wanted to keep her personal life to herself. She figured the male would want to do something similar so she changed the subject, " "I know you said you dont want to sleep at the house and all but are you sure you`ll want to leave so late? My dad could go and talk to your clan and see if its okay if you want." secretly deep deep down somewhere Aya had an emotional attachment to this boy, maybe it was the way he stood out among the others.

[Uchiha Takezo]

Takezo's mouth was watering as he walked next to her, two globs of drool dancing at either side of his hungry smile. Fish mmmmm Takezo enjoyed fish, though to be fair he enjoyed everything. she said, even the soup. Wow that pretty amazing, She dedicated her life to making others happy and healthy. Suppose it's better than being a murderer like we're gonna grow up to be, Right? Takezo was, at times like this, a little too honest.

I mean, I know that I'm going to be personally responsible for many lost lives and broken families. It's the life of a ninja. Takezo was very matter of fact about the whole thing. after all it was war time and he knew that eventually he would have to kill or be killed. Still, Even talking about it took the shine right out of his smile. don't trouble yourself fer sweets, never developed a taste for em.

The two walked side by side for a time and the moon acted like a majestic flashlight hanging in the sky, lighting there path. The field between the water and the road was a long one but with every step hundreds of crickets jumped in every direction. It was one of Takezo's favorite things in life. The aesthetic of it was just too much for him to ignore, a spark of magnificent beauty lies underneath his tattered and feral exterior. Turning his head as fire flies start to dance across the field like lost stars trying to find there way to the sky.

Turning his head in the light of the moon and fire flies, Takezo smiled at the girl. C'mon Nara he joked at her You know that late is a matter of perspective, right? His happy and childish smile returned as he poked light fun of her and avoided answering the question. If he had a way to answer her that wouldn't make himself seem pathetic he would have but he knew that his clan may very well ask the girls father to keep him. He knew too well that he was unwanted by the rest of his clan.

[Nara Shikaya]

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellspacing,0,true] it's the purest element and it's so volatile Aya never understood men, in fact she drew a blank when it came to them. There was something different about women and men, in fact she considered them as boys not men. Was she wrong to consider herself a young women? Her maturity far surpassed the boys and girls of her own age group so why not, its not like she was a child. When she looked over towards the boy she could tell that he was ready for food, if he was so important then why was he looking so desperate, when he spoke of growing up to be a murderer she kept and unemotional face, she`d never thought of it that way but she supposed he had a good point about it. When she looked towards him this time she had a smile on her face, " Murdering is not the correct term, its more like killing the idiotic society of men and women who disband from their homes and try to harm our home." She kept the smile on her face knowing that she was being a bit harsh towards the people who left the village for a reason, but she liked the idea of killing those who deserved it not the innocents. His next words threw her off and the smile turned to a raised eyebrow as she walked slowly next to him keeping gray eyes on the ground for a minute debating how to respond. Each person had their own way of thinking and if he chose to look at the darker side of their life style than that was on him, but she refused to think of such an ordeal. How could one child think of the darker sides of life with so much life left to live. She decided to wait till he changed the subject from the lives they`d end up taking. When he spoke of the sweets she simply shrugged, she liked sweets to an extent but it was nice to know that she wouldn`t have to trouble her mother into making something that wasn`t already done, she`d do it to please her family not matter the strain it put on her. When he called her Nara all Aya could do was chuckle softly, for once someone had decided to call her something other than what she was normally referred too. Shikaya was not one to be fond of the Shika part of her name, it was highly annoying to be part of a clan and if she could she`d leave the whole thing behind, marry a man whom wasn`t in a clan and live a normal non clan related life. Late, of course the word had many meanings and in the sense of time always meant the same thing, well typically that was. She looked over the boy once more a soft smile pulling at her lips as she shrugged, "Do so as you please Takezo, I am not one to force another to do what pleases me. Besides you are a big boy I`m sure you`ll be fine." she shrugged slightly and put her hands into her pockets looking back towards the moon light path leading them to the house of the Shikaya`s family. When they arrived the lights to the house were shining through the windows, She smiled slightly and looked towards the male accompanying her she wanted to let him know that her mother and father might question him a bit but she decided to let him figure that out on his own, she nodded to the house without a sound, the smell of food flaoting through the air as she moved to open the door. "Home sweet home, you ready?" WORDS 623/xxx TAGS Takezo NOTES Yay custom templates :D
